Apply high-temp sealeant to mid-pipe and slip the mid-

provided are on the slip tubes.

Use the supplied 8x50 bolts and 8mm spacers to attach
the muffler clamps. The V.A.L.E.™inlets should be loose to
allow for alignment. You may wish to loosen and rotate the
passenger footpegs out of the way for added clearance.

stock header.
1. Muffler clamps (left and right).
2. V.A.L.E.™ inlets (left and right), torque to 7 ft. lbs.

A long 5mm ball-end allen wrench will help with accessing
the bolts on the V.A.L.E.™ inlet. Check for proper
clearances and alignment and adjust mufflers accordingly.

Double check your work to ensure everything is tight and

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.
Check for gaps or leaks. If you find a leak, a little high
temperature silicon sealant should fix it. After 50 to 100
miles, recheck all fasteners for tightness.
