Those rides are the most fun I have these days.Bill Leutholdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344154257118432221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5741439345411694300.post-70859208264253386602014-11-01T19:42:48.941-04:002014-11-01T19:42:48.941-04:00Sounds like a nice ride.

Some day, when life slows down a bit, it would be nice to make it around the country to ride. You're way ahead on that one......fledermaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15147080242689698722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5741439345411694300.post-11427583553986930592014-10-28T15:21:44.322-04:002014-10-28T15:21:44.322-04:00David, yes, it appears to be the exhaust header. ...David, yes, it appears to be the exhaust header. I was prepared to fix the gasket but it was in just fine. Then I checked the nuts at the head and they appear to be on tight. So I cranked it up and could feel air coming from the pipe. After letting it cool again I could feel come cracking in the pipe. I will take it off as soon as I can and replace it with one of several that must be laying around the warehouse. If I can't find one, I might just put the Leo Vince back on. The exhaust system is clearly the weak link of these fine machines.Bill Leutholdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344154257118432221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5741439345411694300.post-43186682607773329032014-10-28T06:43:45.336-04:002014-10-28T06:43:45.336-04:00Very nice ride Bill. By crack in the header you me...Very nice ride Bill. By crack in the header you mean the exhaust header, right?<br /><br />I had one of those repaired in July. <br /><br />The whole exhaust set up seems to be the GTS's Achilles heal. <br /><br />The good news is that it's a relatively easy fix.
