PRE-INSTALLATION
Carbon mufflers are less durable than titanium or aluminum and are more easily damaged from a crash
as well as normal riding. Damage to the muffler will result from improper maintenance. Replace
packing if there is indication of packing blow out as evidenced by discoloration of muffler canister (gray
carbon weave turning brown), increased exhaust sound level or change in performance. Always
replace packing material if water gets into the muffler. Warranty is limited on this product.
