Hi,

I have a Westcoast and was looking to get a backbox for it as the exhaust is all standard. Saw this sportex and for the money does not seem too bad

can anyone tell me if to fit it it's just a matter of replacing the old one with this one because heard that some backboxes need welding on and thats probily more hastle than its worth

Cheers,
Dan

Straight swap by the looks of it mate.
Would recommend you get a new clamp though. (about £3 from a motor factors)
Shouldnt take you too long either, its just 2 bolts.

Should be pretty easy to swap them over. As said a new clamp would be a good idea and check the condition of rubber exhaust mounts.

Good point. the new exhaust mounts aren't much either. Think i paid something silly like £1.27 each!
