so I got a question. The pipe on this 250r I bought is a sparks mx pipe and is apparently THE pipe to have on a 250r but mine is cracked real bad near one of the mounts and causing a severe exhaust leak. I can have it welded at work but I wanted to know if there is anything special about welding an expansion chamber? What about the potential flammable residue left behind in the exhaust ? Do I have to clean the inside of the pipe before it gets welded? If so, how? Surely one of you guys have welded an exhaust before and can guide me in the right direction.
