Kawasaki ZX-10R

Flange-On Exhaust System

Parts List

We recommend that this performance exhaust system be

installed by a qualified motorcycle technician. If you have

any doubts as to your ability to install this exhaust system,

please consult with your local motorcycle dealer. Read all

instructions first 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 the sidestand or ideally a rear service stand during

installation. Be sure to save all stock exhaust components

for possible use later.

1. Make sure the bike is completely cool before starting the

installation. Make sure the bike is secure on the sidestand or

ideally a rear service stand.

2. Loosen the 3 bolts holding the muffler to the flange..

3. Remove hardware holding the muffler to the passenger foot-

peg.

4. Remove muffler.

5. Install new muffler onto flange using the 8mm washers and

8mm x 20mm bolts. Slide the muffler clamp onto the muffler.

Now slide the 18mm aluminum spacer behind the muffler

clamp and secure using the 8mm x 55mm bolt and stock nut.

Tighten finger tight.

6. Before you run the bike, clean off all fingerprints 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 first

time you start the bike. This is packing/manufacturing oil from

inside the pipe burning off. After 50 to 100 miles, recheck all

fasteners for tightness.

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

Installation Instructions

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 Steel S-bends:

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 & X-Metal Mufflers:

X-Metal CF canisters will shift color from their original silver color to an amber

color after a few heat cycles, similar to the way our stainless steel headers shift color. Always make sure the fiber-

glass packing inside is in good condition and not burned out, as exhaust heat inside an empty canister will deterio-

rate the Carbon Fiber / X-Metal CF 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 fiber mufflers 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 fiber.

Aluminum Mufflers:

Use an aluminum or mag wheel polish such as Mother’s to restore the bright finish to factory

spec.
