Exhaust system
The silencer is filled with glass-fiber yarn for damping. When in use, the
glass-fiber yarn becomes loose or coked with oil carbon. This can lead to a
power loss and a reduction of the silencer damping. The glass-fiber yarn
packing can be replaced in a few easy steps.
To replace, remove the silencer from the vehicle and mark the position of
the outer tube
1 to the inner tube 2. Remove screws 3 and the end cap
4. Pull of the outer tube and remove the old glass-fiber yarn packing 5
from the inner tube. Thoroughly clean all parts.
To assemble, mount a new glass-fiber yarn packing onto the inner tube (see
illustration) and slide into the outer tube. Mount end cap and fix with
scews
3. Before tightening the screws, turn the outer tube until they match
the positions you marked. Mount the silencer and check the exhaust system
for tightness.
NOTE: Glass fiber yarn packages are offered by your licensed KTM dealer.
