speedwerx cans coming apart

[cats4me]

I have a 2010 z1 turbo ext, and decided to install the speedsucks can on it. Had 2 good rides on it, and at mile number 151 the side and end of the can blew all to chit on me. Melted my side panels, bellypan, front pan, and upper cowling. Jeremy said that we didn't install his $80 dollar heat tape correctly, so it is not his fault. Funny thing is, it made 2 rides with no problems, and had no issues until the can split its guts, and bleww all the exhaust out the sides and on the plastic hinges, melting everything in its path. How do you install heat tape over the top of removable hinges??????????? From what I have heard, this is not the first one, either. Opinions?????

Speedwerx has published a service bulletin or a recall regarding this. Call them and they will take care of you.

Called them, they said my authorized speedwerx dealer did not install heat tape correctly. They admitted they had faulty cans and have a new design in the works, but will not cover any of the plastic that their can ruined.
