Honda NTV650 Deauville



My bike, been laid up all winter & now needs an MOT, but before that the split in the exhaust that appeared half way through last season has to be sorted. A new exhaust is out of the question until one comes up for sale at an affordable price. Honda OEM exhausts seem to be arround £800!

Of course, the area to be repaired is well hidden by the heat shield, which, in turn is held in place by bolts which have rusted in... drilling the heads off is, of course a possibility, but the force involved in that operation is likely to do more damage to the already weakened rusty split!
Next saturday.....
