I am missing the left side muffler bracket. I have one but am hesitant to try and install it without some guidance.
I've looked over the parts fiche and it appears that the entire swing arm pivot bolt has to come out. It seems an area for potential problems if you aren't sure about what is involved. What can I expect to find? What should I expect to replace or service once it's out?
I've no centerstand on the bike but have one I can put on. I do have a swing arm stand but I can't believe it would work for this repair.
My replacement bracket has a touch of rust. What is the best way to deal with that so it doesn't come back or permanently damage the metal?
I'd appreciate any thoughts or guidance. It's not critical of course but I have someone who eventually plans to ride on the back and would rather she didn't have to drag her feet. It would hurt the MPG.
