Front exhaust straps breaking lately? Three Buells in the garage and two of em break front straps for no apparent reason two weeks apart.

wheelies? Bought time in the riding season for new riders to get bolder or other riders to get bored... So up goes the front end.

Its always riding season here in South Florida and I don't wheelie on purpose anymore. Just the normal power wheelies! I just thought it is kind of odd that they both break for no reason at all.

Have the mufflers ever been removed and reinstalled?

What Teeps asked.

These exhausts have to be gradually brought up tight from one end to the other. Can't just tighten exhaust flange nuts and work your way back or there will be stresses built up in the exhaust and you'll crack pipes and hangers.

Race pipes installed thousands of miles ago, of course. But they have been fine till now.
