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 nish 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 berglass packing inside is in good

condition and not burned out, as exhaust heat inside an empty canister will deteriorate the carbon ber sleeve.
TBR sells repack kits (Road - #005-10038, Offroad - #005-10038MX) that include everything you need to easily do it yourself.

Titanium Mufers: For cleaning use a mild water based spray cleaner. Always apply cleaner or polish with a soft, clean cloth. Always make sure the berglass packing inside is in good
condition and not burned out, as exhaust heat inside an empty canister will deteriorate the carbon ber sleeve.

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 ber 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.
