Sorry bro, some times you just got to say WTF. I admit I have not seen a pipe come off let alone 2 times in one day.

Sh%t lucky it didn't come off completely and get caught up in the rear[:'(]

man that sux.i saw only one other pipe come off and it came off my buddies yamaha while we were riding it came flying right at me i dodged it and my buddie behind me stopped to pick it up but forgot it was hot and burned his hand. not funny at the time but now we all laugh about it.i guess there always a lesson to be learned when it comes to pipes falling off.
