1. Make sure the bike is completely cool before starting the installation. Make sure the bike is secure on the side- stand or ideally a rear service stand. 2. Loosen the clamp that holds the connector pipe to the headers under the bike. Remove the hardware that holds the stock muffler at the passenger footpeg bracket. Take off the muffler. 3. Re-using the stock Triumph clamp install the new S- bend. Leave loose for now. 4. Place a bead of the hi-temp sealant on the outside edge of the s-bend. Slide the TBR canister onto the end of the S-bend pipe. Wipe off the excess sealant that will squeeze out. 5. 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. Place the spacer between the stock footpeg bracket and the tabs of the clamp. Locate both tabs of the canister clamp on the outside of the spacer. Use the hardware provided along with the stock nut to secure it. Leave loose for now. 6. Make sure everything is aligned and tighten all hardware. Affix the two connector springs to the muffler. 7. Be sure to allow the sealant to dry per the manufacture’s instructions before starting the bike . 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.
