Need some help here. I ordered a knockoff pipe for the XR70 but it doesn't fit. The bend angle is too high - meaning that the pipe is too close to the frame when mounted on the bike.
Where can I get the pipe bent?

if it need a little bend you can do it your self, if it needs sharp bend take it to a shop, shouldnt cost to much 20 buck i would think!
most muffler shops wont have the dies to bend pipe that small.... may have to find an electrician with hydraulic bender

Fill the pipe full of Sand... cap the ends with rubber caps that you can get at home depot and then use a Conduit bender to bend the pipe. This way you can bend the pipe without it collapsing and will give you a smooth bend.
Hope this helps.
