Fitment Guide for the 2 x Universal Reverse Cone Motorbike Exhausts 47.5mm Inlet with Spring Hooks
Fitting the 2 x universal reverse cone motorbike exhausts 47.5mm inlet with spring hooks is a straightforward process, and most riders with a basic set of tools will find it manageable at home. Here are some practical tips to help you get the best results:
- Check your header pipe diameter: Before fitting, confirm that your existing header pipes measure 47.5mm at the exit point. A slight variance can sometimes be accommodated with the supplied clamps, but a close match will always give the best seal and the cleanest finish.
- Use the spring hooks correctly: Attach the spring hooks between the designated lug on the header pipe and the corresponding hook point on the can. Use a spring hook tool or a pair of long-nose pliers for safer, easier installation — springs can snap back with considerable force if handled carelessly.
- Position the mounting straps: The stainless mounting straps should be secured to a suitable mounting point on your frame or subframe. Ensure the strap is tensioned so the can sits at your preferred angle without any lateral movement.
- Tighten the clamps evenly: When tightening the inlet clamps, work gradually and evenly around the clamp to achieve a gas-tight seal. Avoid over-tightening, which can distort the inlet collar.
- Check for clearances: With the cans fitted, check for adequate clearance from the rear tyre, swingarm, and any bodywork. Universal fitment means occasional minor adjustments are part of the process.
- Run the engine and check for leaks: Once fitted, start the engine and check the inlet joint for any gas leakage. A minor hiss usually indicates the clamp needs a small additional turn.
Please note that as with all universal performance exhausts, minor modifications or fabrication may occasionally be required depending on your specific motorcycle model and frame geometry. We always recommend that fitting is carried out by a competent person, and if you have any doubts, consult a professional motorcycle mechanic.
