What. Did they use a carbon fiber decal over the steel muffler and figured no one would notice?

Is your bike running rich leaving too much unburnt gas in the pipe? Cause if that were to ignite in the pipe that could be the cause of the explosion. Or I could just be talking outta my ass

the noise is deeper and more blunt (not so much BRAP is it is BOORRP) which I prefer. and its plain too loud with out a pipe...

looks like the CF tube has vibrated at a different frequency to the clamp and eventually sheered itself enough that it’s asploded. Is there some sort of vibration damper between the clamp and muffler?

you reckon you could claim it under warranty?

Hopefully it was just a shit batch of resin or something.
