Just an odd one and never really thought about it before.
I've just bought a exhaust system for my sxv 550 and if I hold my hand on the end of the can and blow in the other end the air escapes from the edges of the end cap. Is that normal/ok? So it's not air tight?

Thanks and sorry for the strange question. Oh and don't ask my I was blowing off a can Wink

Mine would do the same if I were daft enough to blow down it due to the lack of seals.

I'll grab some pics tomoz. It's a silmoto under seat system. I've managed to pack some exhaust putty in there just in case but after a bit of research there shouldn't be a problem and it's right below the exit pipe anyway.
