Care & Cleaning / Warranty
Care & Cleaning
Keep system free of dirt and moisture. Store in a cool, dry place. For cleaning use a
mild spray cleaner. Always apply cleaner or polish with a soft, clean cloth.
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.
Carbon Fiber Muffl ers: Always make sure the fi berglass 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 (TBR part # 005-10038) that include new
rivets and repack material as well as a drill bit (#30), making it easy to do yourself.
Also, NEVER dyno test your bike with carbon fi ber muffl ers installed - the intense heat
and lack of cooling air can quickly cause the CF material to burn. Two Brothers Racing
does not provide a warranty for burned carbon fi ber.
Aluminum Muffl ers: Use an aluminum or mag wheel polish such as Mother’s to restore
the bright fi nish to factory spec.

only, and therefore are sold “as is” without warranty. Two Brothers Racing specifi cally
disclaims any warranties of merchantability or fi tness for a particular purpose and disclaims all responsibility for consequential and incidental damages or any other losses

TM
tightened
Before you run the bike, clean off all fi ngerprints and
19.
dirt, as any oily residue will etch the metal and become
somewhat permanent when the system gets hot.
Also, remove any plastic fi lm from the name badge(s).
Run the bike and enjoy. It is normal for some white
smoke to appear the fi rst time you start the bike. This is
packing/manufacturing oil from inside the pipe burning
off. Check for gaps or leaks. If you fi nd a leak, a little
high temperature silicon sealant should fi x it. After 50
to 100 miles, recheck all fasteners for tightness.
