    Exhaust shop recommendation?

    I have a SilMoto full spaghetti exhaust for my Ducati 851, I've never been pleased with the fitment. Mostly the two cans end up if placed at the same relative height, they both end up pointing to the left, instead of them each pointing middle - back. It's hard to say, but I think on the muffler end of the exhaust on the left side needs a cut, rotate and re-weld to help get things more aligned. I don't need perfection, but jeebus it's way off



    Ok so this is a bit in jest after getting frustrated trying to line things up better.... Degs and I call this "Derpy Racing" pose.

    Anyway, does anyone have anybody they trust with something like this?? Not gonna bring this kind of job to Lou's or something, hoping someone "had a guy."

    FWIW, I also have a digital tig welder, just need the cutting tools and it could be done here by someone with the right skill set.

    Re: Exhaust shop recommendation?

    Bumping this to the top: I have a 45mm-to-45mm link pipe for the 998, and for reasons I won't get into here* I need to expand the inlet 45mm side to make it 50mm-to-45mm.

    Does anyone have a recommendation for where I can get this done?

    * It's mostly because I am an idiot.

    There's an outstanding shop in Manchester, NH. I'm guessing that's too far? I'm also guessing Scottie got his spaghetti exhaust taken care of by now?

    What's the name of the shop? It's not ideal to go that far, but not the end of the world either.. my guess is that this would take someone skilled about 5 minutes to do.

    They did me a solid on a Borla for my Corvette a while back. I've never heard anything bad about them, always good things.

    my guy in Farmington, NH, Jason Buote @ B&B Fabrication has done several projects for me including 2 exhaust projects, the first was making a 2 into one pipe out of the stock pipes on my V-Strom 1000, and more recently, a complete exhaust for my K-Pipe. he has also lengthened the shifters on all my bikes. Reasonable prices (for me as least)
