BIG 'N NASTY MUFFLER SET - KAWASAKI VULCAN 2000
be sure to install with the chamfer edge facing the rear of the bike. Slide the top muffler gasket all the way to
the stop on the head pipe. The lower gasket slides to about 1/4" before the stop. (If you prefer to order new
gaskets the stock part # is 11061-0023).
10. Slip stock muffler clamps onto the Big N Nasty mufflers before installing onto headers. NOTE: The top
muffler clamp should have the bolt head facing up, and the bottom muffler clamp should have the bolt head
facing down.
11. Insert the rubber grommets removed earlier into the large holes on the mount bracket of the lower muffler
and insert the metal sleeves into the front and rear of the grommet.
12. Install the lower muffler onto the lower head pipe first being sure the gaskets stay in/on the clamp-able area
of the head pipe. CAUTION: Do not force the muffler on as you do not want to damage the gasket. You will
know the muffler is on when the mount bracket holes align with the frame mount bracket. Insert the mount
bolts and tighten into place. Now tighten the muffler clamp.
13. Insert the rubber grommets and sleeves removed earlier into the large holes on the mount bracket of the
upper muffler and insert the metal sleeves into the front and rear of the grommet.
14. Install the upper muffler onto the upper head pipe, first being sure the gaskets stay in/on the clamp-able
area of the head pipe. Do not force the muffler on as you do not want to damage the gasket. You will know the
muffler is on when the mount bracket holes align with the frame mount bracket. Insert the mount bolts and
tighten into place. Now tighten the muffler clamp.
15. Re-install heat shields onto headers starting with the upper pipe first. Adjust/align the heat shields with the
new mufflers and then tighten the clamps firmly.
16. Reinstall the side cover.
NOTE: It may be necessary to loosen the head pipes to allow them to be raised or lowered as necessary to
provide parallel alignment of the mufflers. Moving the ends of the head pipes up or down will raise or lower the
front of the mufflers so that alignment can be achieved. We suggest your loosen the muffler clamps in order to
more easily adjust these pipes and to avoid damage to the gaskets.
IMPORTANT: Before starting the bike it is important to check and tighten all hardware and it is wise to clean
the surfaces of the mufflers and head pipe shields to remove all foreign materials, oils, hand and finger prints.
Using a clean cloth and window or chrome cleaner to be sure all surfaces are clean. Failure to clean the pipes
before starting can result in discoloration after the bike is started and the pipes are heated.
