Put it down pretty gently tonight. The Thunderheader started to scrape and next thing I knew the rear tire was out from under me. Guess I leaned it a little too far. The highway peg I never use got a little bent but kept all the damage to the peg and the pipe. Posting a couple pictures. Can someone fix this on a Thunderheader or am I looking at replacing the pipe? I was planning on getting it coated anyways.

 

Yes, it can be fixed. I have seen it done a few different ways.
Cap the pipe, fill with air pressure, heat dent.

Damn that sucks. Hope you can fix it cheap and easy. I dropped my old bike last summer when my foot slid out from me on some gravel and put some ugly scratches (more like gouges) in my tank. Good luck.

 

Thanks for that info. I was going to do some work this weekend anyway so it looks like the exhaust will be coming off too. I need to ask around if there's anyone in the bay area that can handle that fix. I may give Samson Headers another call.

 

sounds like an explosion (rapid depressurization) waiting to happen..
