Helpful
Tips!
- Read everything
twice before you start the installation
- Use Loctite
only where the Yamaha Manual says to do so.
- Don't use locktite
when you don't need it.
- Get the torque
specifications from the Yamaha manual
- Use Aniti-Seize
with exhaust bolts on header
- Don't tighten
the bolts untill everything is set in place

Step 1. Remove bolts from right
floorboard
There are 2 bolts under the floorboard
that can either be loosened or remove the bolts and floorboard
completely. |
|
|
Step 2. Remove the existing exhaust
system from your motorcycle
See Yamaha service manual for complete
removal instructions. Take extreme care as you don't want to
scratch or hurt your existing exhaust system. |
|
|
Step 3. Install Right Bracket
Install the right bracket, note the
little dog ear at the top is for the brake line holder, a bolt
is supplied for this installation. The bracket goes behind the
frame. |
|
|
Step 4. Install Left Bracket
Install the left bracket, using the
existing bolts after you remove the silverado plate (see photo
below, you may not have one). |
|
|
Step 5. Install the header pipe
heatshields
You can mark the location of the clamp
to make installation easier. |
|
|
Step 6. Install the header pipes
You may want to replace the gaskets
in the header pipes to save you a problem down the road. |
|
|
Step 7. Stand back, look how nice.
|
|
|
Step 8. Install the exhaust pipes
Place the clamp over the end of the
exhaust system, work the exhaust over the header pipe and clamp
(additioanl photos below), your seams should be perfect, if they
are not do it again. Sometime the clamp has slipped back and
does not allow a good seam, reposition it and try again. Once
the seams look great install the carriage bolts. |
|
|
Step 9. Install the tips
Position and install your tips, align
everything and tighten the bolts from the header back to the
exhaust. It's best to have a friend help you with alignment. |
|
|
Step 10. (Optional) Cut the bolts
on the clamps
