Hey,

Just about to ride when I notice the front pipe on my Wileyco (2001 x1) is cracking near the mount. Does anyone know where to source just the front pipe for these?



Thanks
Matt

From my '02 X1 which I no longer own. Sent letter with purchase info and photo to Wileyco. For a replacement fee got a new pipe with heavy duty piece.

Ftd,

Mine is breaking in exactly the same place.

I bought the pipe off ebay, and Wileyco kept telling me to deal with the dealer, who isn't around anymore.

Can you email pm me with any contact info at Wileyco?

Thanks
Matt

How many miles have been on these pipes when cracks have started? I've had one on my S1 for about 15,000 miles with no problems yet.

I had a touch over 15K miles on my pipe when it broke. Wileyco said it was due to not being repacked often enough.
Matt, all my info went to the new owner of my X1.

Dean,
I had about 15 - 20k on the first and maybe 10k on the second. The first one didn't break till I changed out the exhaust gaskets. Go figure.



Thanks for the info Frank. I never repacked the muffler, did you?

Matt,

Soon after I purhased the pipe I emailed the co. and requested some extra gaskets. They sent me some gaskets, a hat and a repack kit (good co.). I never did repack the pipe as it didn't get any louder which i figured would be the sign. Guess I should have though. Run a Drummer on my ULY so no more repacking worries.

I got a replacement pipe from Wiley Co after my 2 year old pipe cracked at the mount. I sent them a few pics, and paid for the shipping. I had never sent in my warranty card in the past.
