i have the restricted muffler on my 96 sa50p. Is there any issues with riding around with a cracked muffler? It cracked around the joint between the thin tube and where it widens. I want to get a new one but in the meantime... It's a small hole and a trickle of smoke exits there

Greetings:

IMO no harm should come from this, other than the noise and perhaps smoke inhalation. Maybe a local shop can patch weld over the hole?

Yes, some sort of epoxy putty would work if you can prep the surface. d*** shame Billy had to die right after Michael. Billy Mays has gotten maybe 5 minute on the news and they are still talking about a guy who died years ago in my opinion.

i have yet to see a stock -s pipe rust to the point that you would have a hole form.
