Parts List

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

We recommend that this performance part be installed by a qualified
motorcycle technician. If you have any doubts as to your ability to install
this performance part, 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 a centerstand or ideally
a service lift during installation. Be sure to save all stock components for
possible use later.

Installation Instructions

1. Make sure the bike is completely cool before starting

the installation. Make sure the bike is secure on a
centerstand or ideally a service lift.

2. Loosen the clamp that holds the muffler connector pipe

to the headers under the bike.

3. Remove the hardware that holds the stock muffler at

the passenger footpeg bracket. Take off the muffler.
Be sure you remove the gasket at the canister/header
junction. You will not reuse this gasket.

4. Assemble the V.A.L.E.™ unit. Use the 4 (four) 6x14mm

socket head cap screws and split lock washers to
loosely attach the X-Lite ™ ring to muffler inlet. Leave
loose for now.

5. Slide the S-bend connector pipe onto the end of the

headers, using the stainless steel T-bolt clamp to attach
it to the headers. Leave loose for now.

6. Carefully slide the muffler clamp over the muffler.

(Note: The stainless steel canister clamp and the name
badge on the canister come from the factory with a
clear plastic protective film. Please remove this film
before operation.
) You may need to twist and turn
the S-bend a little to get it in the right place. Locate
both tabs of the canister clamp on the outside of the
passenger footpeg bracket. Use the supplied hardware
to secure it. Leave loose for now.

7. Make sure everything is aligned and tighten all

hardware. Including the V.A.L.E.™unit and barrel clamp.

8. 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.

Care & Cleaning

Care & Cleaning

Keep system free of dirt and moisture. Store in a cool, dry place. Make sure vehicle is

completely cool before maintenance.

Stainless Header System: 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.

Clean using a mild water based spray cleaner. Always apply cleaner or polish with a soft,

clean cloth.

Titanium Header System: Polished titanium pipes will experience color shift ranging

from deep blue/purple through amber after a few heat cycles. This is a normal

characteristic of high quality titanium. Clean using a mild water based spray cleaner.

Always apply cleaner or polish with a soft, clean cloth.

Polished Aluminum Canisters: Use an aluminum or mag wheel polish to restore the

bright finish to factory spec.

Brushed Aluminum Canisters: Clean using a mild water based spray cleaner. Always

apply cleaner or polish with a soft, clean cloth.

Carbon Fiber Canisters: Clean using a mild water based spray cleaner. Always apply

cleaner or polish with a soft, clean cloth. Always make sure the fiberglass packing inside

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

deteriorate the carbon fiber sleeve.

TBR sells repack kits (Road - #005-10038, Offroad - #005-10038MX) that include

everything you need to easily do it yourself.

Titanium Mufflers: For cleaning use a mild water based spray cleaner. Always apply

cleaner or polish with a soft, clean cloth. Always make sure the fiberglass packing inside

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

deteriorate the carbon fiber sleeve.

TBR sells repack kits (Road - #005-10038, Offroad - #005-10038MX) that include

everything you need to easily do it yourself.

Repack all road canisters every 3,000 miles. Part #005-10038

Repack all offroad canisters after every 10 hours of use. Part #005-10038MX

NEVER dyno test your bike with carbon fiber or titanium canisters installed - the

intense heat and lack of cooling air can quickly burn through the canister material. Two

Brothers Racing does not provide a warranty for burned canisters.
