I have ordered the ceramic black link pipe for my Stealth exhaust. Can I get it sooner than 4 weeks?
Stealth orders, like all exhaust orders, will be despatched based on your shipping choice. If you opted for the upgraded ceramic black link pipe, this can take up to 4 weeks before despatch due to the ceramic coating process. We do have a number of ceramic coated link pipes in stock so if you wish to check on turnaround time for your machine, please get in touch by email or call the office.
Back to TopWhat is a media blast finish?
All stainless parts (excluding the exhaust sleeve) are now media blasted resulting in a satin grey finish. Our exhausts are the same high quality product you have been used to but with a different surface finish. See our blog for more details.
Back to TopWhen will my exhaust arrive?
Exhaust deliveries vary depending on your chosen delivery method or shipping area, if outside the UK. Delivery will be made (or attempted) within the delivery method timescale selected. Please be aware the delivery methods quote working days which does not include Saturday, Sunday or Bank Holidays. Overseas delivery times can take up to 14 working days to be delivered from receipt of order. If you require a definite delivery date, please contact us via email.
Back to TopCan I pick up my order from your factory?
Yes however it is advisable to telephone the office first to check availability and place your order so we can have the goods ready for you.
Back to TopI live outside of the UK. Do I have to pay UK VAT?
If you live outside of the United Kingdom then you do not have to pay UK VAT (currently 20%). VAT will automatically be calculated or removed based on your billing/shipping address as you progress through our checkout process. Please note you may have to pay a Customs charge in your Country but this is up to you to check. Find out more here.
Back to TopWhat is the decibel rating of my exhaust?
It varies between bike models. Our road legal exhausts are manufactured to remain under the UK road legal limit when the baffle is fitted. With the baffle removed it will be louder. Where possible, there are noise ratings on the exhaust option page for your bike model. The basic theory is the smaller and / or shorter the exhaust, the louder it will be. Please note that packing material will wear out over time and your exhaust will get louder.
Back to TopWhat type of sealant do I use when fitting?
You can use everyday bathroom and shower sealant as long as it is silicone based. Just use it sparingly around the inlet of the end can and also inside the pipe which mates up with the OEM system. We also stock Wurth silicone sealant which you can add to your order if you prefer.
Back to TopWill this exhaust fit with other aftermarket parts?
We manufacture our exhausts to fit the OEM system. We cannot guarantee fitment with aftermarket headers or other aftermarket parts such as centre stands, footrest mounting brackets etc.
Back to TopDo you ship Internationally?
Yes we can ship worldwide (some exclusions apply). The cost varies depending on where the parcel is shipped to. The appropriate cost will be added on when you checkout.
Please see our delivery information page for full details.
Back to TopHow much is delivery?
Delivery costs vary depending on what you are purchasing and the delivery timescale you require.
Please see our delivery information page for full details.
Back to TopI have damaged my Fuel exhaust. Can I get it repaired?
Yes, if you require your Fuel exhaust repairing, we can offer the service to do just that. Please email if you require details.
Back to TopDo I need to get my Fuel exhaust repacked?
Yes regular repacking is recommended. You must get your Fuel Exhaust repacked by us to maintain your warranty.
We recommend a repack around every 2 years or 12k miles, whichever comes first.
Exhausts get louder as the packing material wears out so it will become noticeable.
Do you make bespoke projects and one-offs?
At present we are not taking on any bespoke projects. We can manufacture exhausts to any length required however certain sizes mean that the exhausts can only be built as race cans.
Back to TopCan I get a high level version for my bike?
We do not produce many high level exhausts unless the standard OEM fitment is mounted in that position or they are shown as available in our webshop.
Back to TopDoes my Fuel exhaust come complete with everything I need?
Yes, each exhaust is supplied with a full fitting kit and easy to follow instructions. All you need is the tools to fit it and a small bit of silicone sealant!
Back to TopWill I need to rejet or remap my bike when I fit a Fuel exhaust?
No, you should not need to rejet or remap your bike when fitting one of our exhausts however on the odd occasion, some bike models may require some slight adjustments to the standard set-up.
As a general rule, when fitting aftermarket exhausts, a dyno test is recommended and if you do choose to rejet or remap, you will see further power gains and improved throttle response.
Back to TopHow easy is it to fit a Fuel exhaust?
All our exhausts are supplied with easy to follow fitting instructions. In the unlikely event of a problem, we are only at the end of the telephone.
Back to TopWhat guarantee is supplied with a Fuel exhaust?
We offer a lifetime guarantee against manufacturing defects on most exhausts purchased directly from fuelexhausts.com or on orders placed over the telephone. For the guarantee to be valid, you must get your Fuel exhaust repacked by us based on the schedule noted in the ‘Do I need to get my Fuel exhaust repacked?’ FAQ above.
Carbon fibre exhausts are guaranteed for one year against manufacturing defects on v-twin and single cylinder motorcycle models.
Parts and consumables such as clamps, gaskets, baffles and mounting brackets are not covered under the guarantee.
The guarantee applies to the original purchaser for that bike and is non-transferable.
Back to TopWill I need to change the exhaust for an M.O.T?
If you have purchased a UK road legal exhaust then providing the baffle is left in the exhaust you should have no problems with an M.O.T. There are exceptions to this rule, eg. Yamaha MT-10 which is road legal with the baffle in or out.
If you have purchased an exhaust from our race range, then there is no guarantee that this will pass an M.O.T although it is now down to the M.O.T testers discretion. There are a few bikes which are still road legal with the F1R Race fitted and this is detailed on the appropriate bike page. Most F1R Race exhausts are not road legal and are stamped with NOT FOR ROAD USE and will fail an M.O.T.
Back to TopIs the dB killer / baffle easy to remove?
Yes, the bolt can be removed easily using an allen key on all our exhaust ranges. Occasionally users drop the baffle bolt inside the carbon outlet on the Diablo exhaust. The Diablo range uses a zinc plated bolt and it can be traced out to the hole using a magnet.
Back to TopAre these exhausts road legal?
If you have purchased a UK road legal exhaust then yes, it is UK road legal when the baffle remains in place. The British Standard reference for road use is stamped accordingly on each exhaust. They are not road legal outside of the UK.
If you have purchased the F1R Race exhaust, unless specified otherwise on the page, it is not road legal and will be stamped indelibly with NOT FOR ROAD USE.
