Silencer vibrating problem

What year is your car, maybe the steering is out of alignment or the wheels are out of alignment or they are unbalanced have you hit a pothole lately you may have bent your rim.

a silencer dent gives the bike character even a different zorst sound

can you buy a silencer protector for the 180?
might cover the dent

heating up and cooling it wont help much
you could try and cut out the dent and fit new metal
will look ugly


how much is a silencer ?
pulsar 180 exhaust

below the silencer i mean the black box that connect the silencer and the bike look at the side.

its like 2 metal sheet connected . maybe there will be some leackage

My TVS victor - 2004 model has started misfiring recently (that is a big noise from the silencer) when applying brakes or during deceleration. Can anyone please suggest what could be done about it??

Please check if the engine mountings and the drvies are not wobbling at this speed. You must lift up each wheel and test for noise or wobbling of the bearings. Also assuming that your tyres are new , if not replace the tyres as there could be uneven wearing making this to react at slow speeds. You will need to check on the balance rods, the suspension springs / bushes and silencer mountings for any slackness. this might also produce the sympathetic vibration. Hope you get this right.Good day

Try to check all the bolts tht holds the engine to the frame they could be lose.
I had a similar case and only to find tht the engine mounting bolts were lose the bike was Bultaco 125 sherpa.
Hope this helps!

check silencer or exhaust support....

Hi .... This may sound daft but have you recently changed or had the exhaust off ? Have a look at the silencer/muffler rear mounts, difficult to explain but they should be in a 'neutral' position, not fully pushed in. Maybe the vibes are coming straight along the pipes from the engine and through the footpegs.
Let me know how you get on.

Make your own bracket !

Hi! it sounds like the baffles have detached themselves from the wall of the muffler/silencer. With the bike running try inserting a long slim screwdriver or similar into the exit of the exhaust bearing in mind it's HOT! try a little LIGHT pressure aganst the main baffle if it stops you may be able to drill and take a long bolt and nut to secure.(On the inside so as not seen) Failing that an after market system is the only route unless you have a large wallet for genuine.
Good luck!
