IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
We recommend that this performance part be installed by a qualied
motorcycle technician. If you have any doubts as to your ability to install this
performance part, please consult with your local motorcycle dealer. Read all
instructions rst before starting installation. Make sure the motorcycle and
exhaust system are completely cool before starting the installation. Also,
make sure the bike is secure on a centerstand or ideally a service lift during
installation. Be sure to save all stock components for possible use later.

X-Ring and bolts with lock washers, keep loose for now.
Loosely Install barrel clamp at end of slip-tube.
5. Check alignment of mufer and tighten the 4 6x14mm
socket head cap screws. Then tighten barrel clamp and
lastly tighten mufer mount.
6. Double check your work to ensure everything is tight and
properly installed.
7. Before you run the bike, clean off all ngerprints 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 rst
time you start the bike. This is packing/manufacturing oil
from inside the pipe burning off. Check for gaps or leaks.
If you nd a leak, a little high temperature silicon sealant
should x it. After 50 to 100 miles, recheck all fasteners for
tightness.

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 Mufers: 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 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 ber mufers 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 ber.
Aluminum Mufers: Use an aluminum or mag wheel polish such as Mother’s to
restore the bright nish to factory spec.
Repack all road canisters every 3,000 miles. Part #005-10038
