    Nice video Dave, you're very clear and thorough throughout. I just bought a set of Rinehart slip Ons and the directions said to use High Temp Copper Silicone so I'll do exactly the same thing you did here. Thanks

    hey, cool vid. Did it smoke or burn when running hard?

    I've tried Würth exhaust cement and JB Weld and both didn't work properly. Have you noticed any problems with permatex after running the bike for a few hours?

    Is the paste gonna get hard? Will it fuse the pipe to the headers?

    For bikes with exhausts that aren’t so clean, use brake cleaner and a shop rag to remove contaminants

      I didn't find it to be any more bothersome.

    When I apply the sealant & try to join the pipes together they won’t go all the way in & all the sealant gets pushed out 😩

    my muffler clamps are loose because of absence of gasket in them,its really scary because of loose clamps both of my exhaust pipes are not only leaking but also shaky .my question is,will this silicone gasket sealer will fix my problem or should i use real gaskets?

    • @storegga

      try look at a smaller diameter clamp first, if it's loose tightened to Torque specs then, that maybe the first issue. A gasket would be of benefit to help seal the mating surfaces of both the exhaust lip, and header down pipe should there be a difference in pipe diameters. This sealant is worth a try before using a gasket. The metal/copper gasket wont remedy a loose clamp, however.

    Whats up Harley Dave! I'm trying your gasket sealer method on my Iron 883. You said to wait 1 hour for torque. How long do you need to wait before actually starting the bike and checking for leaks?

    • @harleydave2316
      @harleydave2316  7 років тому

      leonard pezza follow the instructions on your product. I think mine said 12 hours.

      Twist it harder, be sure you use RTV and not contact cement.

    Hi, i have a question, is it bad if the gasket is leaking very small amount of air ? i want to ride my bike for the next two days and im getting new OEM gasket after that, so until then is it ok to ride the bike while there is that small leak or will it damage something :S ? thanks for the video, i will try your fix as well

    Did you put Gasket sealer from where the muffler meets the bike or only where muffler pieces meet each other?

    Did you reuse the same muffler clamp because I heard they are a one time use
