A few days ago I installed a LeoVince exhaust on my 700x . It sounds great . When I started the bike yesterday, water was coming out of the joint where the can meets the pipe and at the joint where the new pipe connects to the stock pipe. It quits after a minute or two as the exhaust warms up. The joint at the can itself has no type of clamp to adjust. The can just slides on to the new pipe. There is a clamp where the new pipe and stock pipe connect. I snugged up that connection but have no torque wrench yet so can not verify it is correct. I can understand condensation forming when hot exhaust gases meet with cold metal. But I have never had moisture actually dripping out of the various joints in an exhaust system. When the engine is running, I can't feel any air coming out of the joints. Yet, the moisture leaks out with no problem. Does anyone else experience this ? Is this an issue I should be paying close attention to ?
