dry pipe coupler

[restosud]

i've seen some kawi factory pipe dry pipes that have a coupler with hose clamps to seal it.i guess the o-rings are still used as a primary seal.who makes or sells these couplers?

What diameter do you need? I'm not familar with Kawi Pipes.
I do know that most Hot Products dealers can get replacements or you can call FP direct.
We are using this for our Yamaha Type 4's it seems to hold up better than the blue coupler material and it is cheaper.

the coupler fits the dry pipes only.one end has a larger od then the other so that it fits around the manifold and the pipe.i think it's molded in that shape,unless it's really flexible to stretch around the pipe and still tight around the manifold.

I assume your talking about sxr dry pipe?
If so there a few different ways. You can use a stock 650sx coupler.
It's rubber and has grooves for the 2 hoses clamps, so they stay in place.
It helps "seal" the pipe so you don't get black muck dripping out.
Only down side is the couplers do rip sometimes.

thanks for the info.which coupler on the 650sx fits.the one from headpipe to chamber or the large one that connects the 2 chamber halves?

It is the coupler for the 2 chamber half's. the ID is 4inchs.
I don't have the part number but check kawasaki.com
JetWorld usually has them in stock.
