All
It appears that the classic is not the only Silencer" that has this problem.
Chris is working with me and the exact same thing has happened to my 912S
"silencer". The aft Port connector socket was not welded properly and has
broken loose.
I used a currency converter service I found on the web, and you are correct.
190 GBP = $349.64 USD . Ouch !!!
But if I can get it, I will have to pay the price. You guys in the UK sure
do have a lot of money. And I was under the impression the USA was where
things where expensive.

just after the flange. It has been examined by CKT (the manufacturer) and
they tell me that there have been a few of these fail (all port rear).
Apparently CKT did not do the jigging and it was found that the port rear
was slightly out of position. All this was corrected about 18 months ago so
anyone with one of these exhausts older than this should check theirs for
signs of cracking.

extremely helpful. He is going to make another one for me inside 10 days for
=A358 + VAT which I think is very reasonable.
