Cutting Side Panel
IainL - 26/7/10 at 04:23 PM

I need to cut the side panel so that I can fit the exhaust manifold

Can anyone provide me with a template and/or some dimensions of the hole I need to cut?

The chassis is an Aries and the engine is a 919 fireblade.

is the engine craddle and exhaust system from steve at aries if so am sure he`ll be able to help, if not just stick a few corflake boxes together and then cut that to make your template, i need to do the same!!!

Best to do it by putting manifold on engine before you put side panel on, make your template and make marks to show where it has to go on the panell.

Need to think about how you are going to get the manifold on and off when the panel is on, or do what a lot do and just make a big hole, then cut a piece of stainless to fit around the pipes neatly and which you can take off if you need to
