Exhaust System
The exhaust system, in particular the muffler, is
designed to reduce exhaust noise and conduct the
exhaust gases away from the rider while minimizing
power loss. If carbon has built up inside the muffler,
exhaust efficiency is reduced, causing engine per-
formance to drop.
If the muffler is badly damaged, dented, cracked
or rusted, replace it. Replace the silencer packing if
the exhaust noise becomes too loud or engine per-
formance drops.
Silencer Packing Replacement
