that the shocks clear the brackets.
Before you run the bike, clean off all fingerprints and dirt, as
20.
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. Check for gaps or leaks.
If you find a leak, a little high temperature silicon sealant
should fix it. After 1 to 2 hours of riding recheck all fasteners
Tighten the 4 6x16mm socket head screws that attach the

muffler to the header joint on both mufflers.
Tighten the muffler clamps, making sure the alignment is good.

Maintenance
Check your hardware every 10 hours of operation,
•
including the bolts on the muffler assembly.
Packing should be replaced every 15 hours of operation.

Quiet inserts are also available. P1 Powertip (005-P1), P1-
•
R Powertip (005-P5) and P4 Powertip (005-P4)
In order to maintain optimal performance, it is
•
recommended that this spark arrestor be cleaned after
every 30 hours of use. (Our U.S. Forestry Service approved
Spark Arrester is included with all M-7 V.A.L.E. stainless/aluminum
exhaust systems. These tips prevent broadcasting sparks with no
appreciable loss of horsepower. Additionally this tip prevents the
introduction of foreign matter into the exhaust system.)

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.
Polished Aluminum Canisters: Use an aluminum or mag wheel polish to restore the
bright finish to factory spec.
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.
