Notes:

  • ◆ After working on the exhaust system ensure that the system is not under stress, and that it has sufficient clearance from the bodywork. If necessary, loosen double and single clamps and align silencer and exhaust pipe so that sufficient clearance is maintained to the bodywork and the support rings are evenly loaded.
  • ◆ Renew self-locking nuts.
