I have a full supertrapp racing exhaust on my 300ex and the problem is that it sticks out to far. It sticks out past the grap bar , and the problem is that if a do a wheelie and go to far it will land on the silencer and not the grab bar.

 

Did you contact Supertrapp and tell them your dilema?
I have the old shorty style and mine doesn't come close to coming near the edge of the plastics. I think it ends right near the 2nd bolt in the grab bar.

I owuld contact Supertrapp and wher eyou bought the exhaust, maybe they sent you the wrong part.. Did it bolt up ok? Or did you have to fab?

 

I had the same problem with my wife's old 300. It had the Supertrapp EAR system. I ended up fabricating a custom grab bar. This protected the muffler, but then it wouldn't stand on the rear wheels unless I put the rear wheels on two 2 x 4's first. Nothing wrong with the exhust system, just a little too long.

 

mine doens't stick out past the bar...

i wonder if the bars are different from year to year?

 

which suppertrapp system do you have the IDS, IDS2 or the EAR? there might be one more but i'm not sure, anyway as far as i know the IDS series ones arent that long.

 

i saw a picture of it and it looks like it sticks out almosta 6inchs past the rear fender. i think its an EAR

 

no its not the ear series , or the isd2 it is the old racing sereies exhaust. It fit on ok not problems. I am wondering if there is a way to cut a part out of the silencer and weld it back together?

 

You could cut out part of the silencer and weld it back together but i really wouldnt reccomend it. Your exhaust was designed to operate a certain way and unless your a pipe builder i suggest 2 options, 1) just leave it alone 2) get yourself a new pipe.

 

ok i will definately leave it alone. I don't have the money for a new one.
