Default end of exhaust fell off *facepalm*

i was riding today not speeding or accelerating fast or anything
then i hear my bike get 3x louder than normal
i turn around and notice the end of my exhaust fell off
i went back to get it and what do you know the moment im about to get it a $*#$ing 10 ton truck runs over it



im not sure exactly what kind of exhaust i have on my bike and nor do i know the real name of the end of the exhaust

heres pics of my exhaust, only thing on it is an embossed TBR which i assume is two brothers





can i buy that exhaust end at any store that sells exhausts?

It sure looks like someone shortened the can... perhaps they didnt re-rivet the cap back on.. I dont even see any holes drilled for rivets to go through...

You can call TBR or try ebay... the newer TBRs that I have seen have a different encap altogether..

like this (which doesnt attach like yours)

Good luck

Yeah it looks like someone made it a shorty but forgot to drill the holes and just slipped the end cap on. Just get a new cap, drill holes into the can, rivet and your done. Might want to repack it while you have it apart too. I don't know if Two Brothers still sells that old style end cap though...

thx for the info everyone
there was only 2 screws holding in the end cap and the packing came lose, i think thats why it fell off
that ebay link would be perfect if it was circular not oval shaped thx trying anyhow
its so obnoxiously loud right now i dont even want to ride it

Take it off and take it and the endcap to a good muffler shop or Machine shop and see what they can do. I had a Vance & Hines that burned through the Packing and the baffle rusted and came loose in the can. Took it to a machine shop that worked with aluminum and they welded up the baffle and repaired a hole in the can the old baffle created in the can's wall. $100 but that's way cheaper than a new can. Don't forget to repack it.
