Took a corner a little too tight and caught the generator exhaust pipe. Grrr...

these mh are pretty wide and on some streets we have to fold in our mirrors to get through. sometimes i run over curbing too while turning on narrow streets. it amazes me how the eighteen wheeler drivers can take corners with only an inch to spare.

Good excuse to slap an Onan resonator on there... end result is less noise.

Ow, don'tcha just hate it when the scenery reaches out and grabs ya like that?

Hope it doesn't wind up costing too much.

Caught mine on a concrete median on the CBE in NYC 2 years back. Between trying to keep the mirrors from getting smacked in the dungeon like darkness and wondering where your genny pipe is can be stressful. Fortunately only the mount had to be replaced. There are times while parked on a tight residential street I worry about folks not seeing the pipe. When at home I always throw two traffic cones out, just because.

As far as I can tell, it seems to have just broken the bracket and spun it 90*.


But there's a crimp in the pipe that I suspect wasn't there before. I don't want excess backpressure. So, it's in the "'nother ^$%$# thing to fix" list.

Frustrating.

Did it damage only the generator exhaust pipe? We had an older ONAN where the exhaust pipe was separate from the muffler and I used a 90*-bent conduit elbow as that pipe. I haven't looked at our newer 4KY...

You are lucky that is all you did!

Bummer, how much of the pipe is damaged? I ended up cutting off about 5" of my pipe with a Sawz-All when installing the stainless steel end for a Gen-turi to maintain the same overall length.
