I printed out your tip and filed it for future reference.

People probably didn’t realize you had identified a cheap alternative to the T500 muffler connector that retails in the US for $25.
BAS (Bike Acquisition Syndrome) - too many bikes but have room for more

That looks like a good alternative, providing it can deal with the exhaust heat in long-term use.

Gotta love that cross compatibility between cars and bikes. Apparently a Renault Clio timing belts fits a Ducati 916!
