SON OF A BITCH... If the OEM hose clamps won't work with a Samco TBB, WHY THE FVCK DOESN'T IT COME
WITH IT'S OWN CLAMPS THAT *DO* FIT?????????
Now I'm REALLY pissed that I spent more and got less from ECS compared to AWE.
AWE = Samco TBB w/ clamps for $68
ECS = Samco TBB only for $90
What a fvcking ripoff and of course, 15% restocking fee if you return it. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
So anyway, back to my rant: I tightened the OEM clamps all the way down and they're not tight at all. The Samco is much thinner than the stock TBB. So now I get to spend even more money on clamps and have to put the stocker back on. I'mso fvcking pissed.
Anyway, is it ok that there's a little oil in the OEM TBB?

My samco is holding up fine with the included clamps (I bought it from AWE)
No leaks and hasn't popped off once *shrug* Verruckt had a cool trick of using hairspray to make it slide onto the pipes easier and when it dries its sticky and holds the pipes better. Old BMX trick for putting on handlebar grips, I use the same technique on my mt. bikes... works great :-)
