[QUOTE="oexing, post: 177040, member: 1493"] Armours have sent a message about delivery of exhaust systems I ordered some time ago. So then soon I will try the BMW design seals of the chamfered rings, one of them slotted for a collet type clamping effect. So anyway I will not bash a flange on one of the new pipes for gripping the pipe in the head. The copper seal does not appear to prevent fretting of components in there, even with a decent load from the ex nut. And I do not like high loads on exhaust threads when they are aluminium ! So that is why I will have the BMW rings plus pipe clamps in a few places, like in the side stand bracket place and to the rear past the gearbox somewhere. Vic [/QUOTE]
