I just reinstalled my yoshi pipe. now i have exhaust coming from around one of the head pipes. I took the pipe off twice to make sure the pipes are not bound up. Could the metal gasket be worped or warn out causing my problem? also the motor has a real bad backfire when letting off of the gas now and occasonally sputters could this be caused by the pipes not being sealed?
P.S. the original reason i took the pipes off was because the exhaust studs broke off (2 of 4) because i torqued them down to much. i was told this was the reason be the yamaha mechanic.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

When I installed my Yoshimura, it was a real bear to get things lined up, I torqued per specs in the manual and luckly everything went together without exhaust leaks. Took alot of swearing but in the end it was surely worth it.
I thought those studs should have been tighter but so far, no problems. As RAPTORJAY said replace the gaskets and give her another try.
Good Luck
