Hallo all. None too long ago I went and got my hands on a 2004 People 150. Since then she's been a wonderful ride, shuttling me back and forth across town with nary a peep (Yes. I do change the fluids on a regular basis).
However recently the bolts that held the neck of the muffler to the exhaust vibrated loose and fell onto a highway somewhere. Not able to perform a fix and miles away from any sort of assistance, I continued onwards. Eventually however the vibration broke off the neck of the muffler and had it not been for the broken neck getting caught in the center stand, I would have lost it on the highway as well.
Now here's the problem. I can weld the exhaust back together, but for the life of me cannot find replacement bolts to reattach the muffler to the engine. The bolts are referred to in the manual as "Exhaust Muffler Lock Bolts" and have threads on both ends of the bolt with a smooth section in the middle. I cannot find the exact specification for the bolt and riding season is slowly slipping away.
If any of you could help me with this problem I would appreciate it greatly
