Detailed Installation Steps

1. Remove Stock Exhaust System

   Begin by removing the stock exhaust system, particularly focusing on the section where the X-Pipe will be installed. Refer to the video on removing the stock exhaust for detailed steps if needed. Ensure the frame is split on both sides, but only undo one side to install the X-Pipe[3).

2. Install X-Pipe and Mid-Pipes

   Install the X-Pipe by aligning it with the stock locating pin and left side frame bolt. Ensure the clamps are pre-installed with the heads aiming towards the back of the bike. Apply silicone spray to ease the installation process. Secure the X-Pipe and mid-pipes, making sure all bolts are torqued to the specified 40 Newton meters and 105 Newton meters for the Big Bolt[3).

3. Reassemble Frame and Connect Components

   Reattach the frame, ensuring the peg aligns with the grommet and avoiding any wire pinching. Use the Big Bolt to hold the frame in place while securing the other bolts. Tighten all bolts according to the specified torque values[3).

4. Final Check and Tightening

   Perform a final check to ensure all parts are securely in place. Tighten any loose bolts, and verify that the exhaust studs are properly aligned and sealed. Apply grease to the exhaust gasket for a secure fit[3).
