Installation Instructions
Make sure the bike is completely cool before starting the installation. Make sure the bike is secure on the sidestand or ideally a rear service stand.
1. Remove right rear plastic panel to expose existing exhaust system.
2. Remove bolt connecting existing exhaust canister to frame.
3. Remove bolt at junction of existing connector & headpipe.
4. Remove old muffler & connector tube.
5. Loosely attach the V
.A.L.E.™ muffler to the stainless steel s-bend tube using the four supplied 6x14mm socket head cap screws and split lock washers. Leave bolts loose for now.
8. Insert the V
.A.L.E.™ assembly in from the rear of the bike. Carefully rotate the pipe into position and slide it onto the header.
7. Carefully rotate muffler assembly to align the 8x25mm bolt with the mounting hole on the frame, insert the bolt and loosely tighten.
8. Attach lower s-bend mount to subframe using OEM hardare.
9. Once the muffler is aligned tighten the four 6mm x 14mm V.A.L.E.™ screws with the supplied ball end hex key.
10. Tighten rear muffler top mount
11. Check your work and clean all fingerprints.
12. Re-install the plastic panel, and anything else that you may have loosened or removed in order to install the exhaust system.
13. Double check to make sure everything is aligned and tighten all hardware.
14. Before you run the bike, clean off all fingerprints and dirt, as any oily residue will etch the metal and become somewhat permanent when the system gets hot. Run the bike and enjoy. It is normal for some white smoke to appear the first time you start the bike. This is packing/ manufacturing oil from inside the pipe burning off. After 50 to 100 miles, recheck all fasteners for tightness.
Care & Cleaning
Care & Cleaning
Keep system free of dirt and moisture. Store in a cool, dry place. Make sure vehicle is completely cool before maintenance.
Stainless Header System: Polished stainless steel pipes will turn a light golden hue after a few heat cycles, this is a normal characteristic of high quality stainless steel. Clean using a mild water based spray cleaner. Always apply cleaner or polish with a soft, clean cloth.
Titanium Header System: Polished titanium pipes will experience color shift ranging from deep blue/purple through amber after a few heat cycles. This is a normal characteristic of high quality titanium. Clean using a mild water based spray cleaner. Always apply cleaner or polish with a soft, clean cloth.
Polished Aluminum Canisters: Use an aluminum or mag wheel polish to restore the bright finish to factory spec.
Brushed Aluminum Canisters: Clean using a mild water based spray cleaner. Always apply cleaner or polish with a soft, clean cloth.
Carbon Fiber Canisters: Clean using a mild water based spray cleaner. Always apply cleaner or polish with a soft, clean cloth. Always make sure the fiberglass packing inside is in good condition and not burned out, as exhaust heat inside an empty canister will deteriorate the carbon fiber sleeve. TBR sells repack kits (Road - #005-10038, Offroad - #005-10038MX) that include everything you need to easily do it yourself.
Titanium Mufflers: For cleaning use a mild water based spray cleaner. Always apply cleaner or polish with a soft, clean cloth. Always make sure the fiberglass packing inside is in good condition and not burned out, as exhaust heat inside an empty canister will deteriorate the carbon fiber sleeve. TBR sells repack kits (Road - #005-10038, Offroad - #005-10038MX) that include everything you need to easily do it yourself.
Repack all road canisters every 3,000 miles. Part #005-10038 Repack all offroad canisters after every 10 hours of use. Part #005-10038MX
NEVER dyno test your bike with carbon fiber or titanium canisters installed - the intense heat and lack of cooling air can quickly burn through the canister material. Two Brothers Racing does not provide a warranty for burned canisters.
