1985 V45 Magna, 32xxx miles... Something has decided to come loose in the exhaust collector, making a horrible buzzing/rattling at about 3700 - 4300 rpm.
I found a parts bike (Honda no longer carries the part), thinking I could just swap exhausts, but the replacement collector is doing it too.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? Surely I am not the first one this has happened to... Is there an aftermarket bolt on exhaust system available where I wouldn't have to rejet or pull the engine to install? Thanks, Steven
