 |
|
Hi
New to the forum. Couple of questions, one for UK members, the other more general:
1. First of all I'm moving from London to Bristol and I wondered if any members knew of any dealers in the South West who will be able to service my 2001 Mastiff. I love it, but from various web searches it looks as if the nearest dealers are in Taunton or South Wales, which is a bit of a trek.
2. I want to fit an after market pipe to my Mastiff, but not break the bank! Any tips on which exhaust to get, and where I could get a bargain?
Many thanks
Pete |

Hello!
If your looking for servicing in general, then your bet bet is just a Yamaha dealer. Your bike is out of warranty so it doesnt need to be an mz dealer and it is a yamaha engine!
As for your exhaust, breaking the bank is a huge problem as they are quite rare 2nd hand. I was lucky, I managed to find an adaptor pipe on ebay and used an end pipe for a fireblade which cost me £30!
Have a look for exhausts for various 660 engined bikes and see if you could adapt the final bend to fit - e.g an XTZ or a SZR.
Hope this helps

Its a BSM link pipe that can be purchased seeratly fromDave Silver spares in the UK. Number is 01728 833020. The muffler connectons are the 3 bolt type with the same fixing hole pattern as some blades and I think some Suzuki's.
