I read through a number of threads trying to decide if I should buy HT Grip with the adhesive or use my own form of adhesive.<br />
<br />
It appeared that the majority of people said that Weldwood Contact cement was the best way to go for a stronger more permanent bond to your gas tank. So that is the route I chose.<br />
<br />
I'm not sure if Weldwood contact cement bonds well with certain types of paint and not so well with others? My tank was painted by an auto body shop with automotive grade paint and the painted tank had over a week to dry.<br />
<br />
When I applied the contact cement to the tank and the HT grip you are supposed to let it dry for 15 minutes according to the instructions on the bottle so it can become tacky. Within just a few minutes of applying the contact cement it started reacting with the paint on the tank making it bubble, just like a paint thinner would.<br />
<br />
I tried to put the HT grip on anyway because I wasn't sure what to do at that point and it appeared to be tacky or sticking. I put pressure on the grip for about 10 minutes around the different curves because HT material is fairly stiff. Everything seemed to be fine and bonded. Then I came back the next morning and the grip had basically ballooned or puffed out with big air bubbles between the grip and tank as if a gas was created from the contact cement reacting with the paint.<br />
<br />
I peeled the grip off and I'm starting over with another adhesive, that sucked. <img src="images/legacy/smilies/banghead.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Banghead" class="inlineimg" /> <br />

I know you all say use the factory exhaust on the bike but I HATE how it sounds! With that said I picked up a yoshi slip on and it' has been shortened some. I was wondering if any of you have tried cutting the servo valve off the factory and putting it on your slip on. Trying keep the low end I hear I'll loose plus keep all my lights off. Any tips etc I was just curious wish I had a spare factory exhaust to try cutting up first but I don't. will it work? Screw it and sell the slip on and deal with my bike sounding like a lil moped or loose a lil low end and have it sound like a bike..... What would you all suggest??? <img src="images/legacy/smilies/banghead.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Banghead" class="inlineimg" />
