I'm sure that the last time I fitted a Remus Y the BMW exhaust clamps fitted .
Anyway, the clamps that came with the Remus Y for my Adventure are crap so decided to put the guard thing back on by the can and fit the BMW clamps at the y bit, well bugger me there too big.not by a lot mind you , when pulled up tight they just spin.poo.


Anyone rekomend a alternative supplier or a fix.

I had the same problem with my last adventure. They are tight to fit over using the standard cover............but with a litlle patience and jiggling it does fit.

Noooooooo!
The clamps dont fit , looks like the end's of the y piece are not rolled as much as the bm one or they are using a thinner gauge for the #Y piece.
Looks like I need a trip to halfords.......
 
I've always found the remus clips are of good quality ? they can't be the genuine article - and yes, the BMW clamps are to large for the remus Y piece connections .
 
i had the same thing and i took out the spacer that stops the bm clamp closing tight. it works fine. tight now
