    Hi Everyone!
    I discovered that the rear bracket rubber is severely cracking. I'm wanting to replace the unit,
    preferably before the muffler drops. Any thoughts where I can get it? Thank you!

    Time for a new dual exhaust system. That's the only way to fix it properly. :evilsmile:

    Hi! I'm not sure a dual exhaust would work for a straight 200, but if
    I ever go up in engine size, it's worth considering!

    I don't think your muffler is going to drop anytime soon. Look like plenty of life left in the rubber...I seen worse
