I have a Yosh 3/4 exhaust on my 2017 FZ10 and on the left side where the Y meets the Yosh pipe. I've tried repositioning the gasket which looks fine and moving the clamp but I'm still getting a leak at the very bottom. Any suggestions?

I'm pretty sure my Hindle is the same. Haven't bothered messing with it but now that it's winter I'm going to. I'm going to look into some different clamps too as I'm not a fan of the ones Hindle included.
Maybe the Y-pipe isn't all the way seated onto the header pipe? If it is you might be able to take the gasket to a motorcycle shop and see if they can get one that's same ID/OD just a little longer to fill in the gaps

That's a good idea. I'll see what they have. I'm also not a fan of the Yosh clamps. The hex screws seem way softer than they should be and I'm afraid they'll strip if I try and tighten them much more.

On the Hindle Exhaust do not use the clamps or if you do decide to use the clamps, DO NOT over tighten the clamps. Over tightening the clamps may cause the pipe to bend and cause an exhaust leak. Spray some lubricant on the header pipe and on the slip on and push the slip on as far as possible into the header pipe. Slight tapping on the slip on should be fine to get it to seat into the header pipe.   |
