Hazard

The welding of the mounting clamp for the dual pipe (fork pipe) attached to the rear end of the exhaust pipe is inadequate. Vibration from driving and other sources may cause cracks to develop at the weld. Continued use may result in weld separation and, in the worst case, detachment of the pipe, which could obstruct other traffic.
