Removing and installing parts of exhaust system

t  After working on the exhaust system ensure that the system is not under stress, and that there is sufficient clearance to the bodywork. If necessary, loosen double clamp(s) and align silencer and exhaust pipe so that sufficient clearance is maintained to the bodywork and the support rings are evenly loaded.
