1982 GS1100GL
Please see attached picture of my pipes.
I removed my exhaust pipes from my bike because I was hearing some popping and I also want to replace the bolts and gaskets. Right away I noticed that the two center pipes pull right out of the left and right pipes. I figured maybe the clamps were loose but they appear to be fully tightened.
Should the clamps be holding them in to the point were I can't pull them out? I also noticed the two center pipes, where they join in the middle there is a clamp, also tightened but I can twist the pipes away from each other easily, but was not able to pull them apart (I didn't try hard).
What do I need to do to these before putting them back on my bike please?
