    I purchased a Laser exhaust from Foster RAD and it does not fit correctly. They have blown me off and to make a long story short I am trying to figure out which part is flawed.I would like to find a member in California that has one that could give me a hand with a comparison of the suspect parts (I think it is in the Y or the right pipe off the Y) so I have to cut and weld as little as possible.Maybe even some good pics will help me decide where to mod the pipes. Thanks.

    A cluster fuck

    I had two of my guys come by tonight that do custom welding and fab and they both wanted to find out what part is flawed as it is a cluster fuck of parts.They are willing to cut it up and make it fit but we agree that it would be best to figure out where the flaw is and repair that.

    Too bad for the bullshit.

    I'm glad you are getting some support somewhere along the line. Hopefully Laser will square you away, and I bet that they will since they got ahold of you.

    Tell them to hurry up. I'm waiting for you to get that all put together so that I can finally get my hands on a quality sound clip from the Lasers other than just an idle.

    I got my Lasers from pipecity.com. No issues installing them, as with any dual exhaust system (in my experience) they are not perfectly symmetrical, but the difference is not noticeable at all. I'm sure I could tweak a little here and there to make them perfect but like I said, the difference is not noticeable.

    Definitely work with Laser though. The place you bought them from doesn't care, not their problem. But Laser should stand by their product and work with you to get pipes that fit.

    I do recall having to use some washers, maybe a longer bolt too, to get them positioned better.

    Thats the plan

    I need to get them to fit and then I plan on being rid of them.Not even Harley guys would buy them like they are. I am in contact with Laser and they want me to go back to Foster RAD ...........I guess they do not understand the jerk-off's wont deal with customers that have a problem.....just ignore them until they go away.I shall give this until the weekend and then its the saw and tig welder for them.Very rusty in my tig skills so I will have to practice a bit before I weld them back together but I am very near my limit with this horse shit.:bs:
