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. Remove the lower fairing. 3. Unscrew the O 2 sensor. Remove the stock exhaust system at the rear canister support bracket and where it bolts to the engine. CAUTION -the stock exhaust is very heavy, be careful not to drop it! Also, be careful not to damage the engine sensor located near the front header pipe. 4. Pry out the old exhaust port gaskets and replace with new BMW OE (x4) exhaust port gaskets. Adab of grease will help hold the gaskets in place while you work. 5. Coat the exhaust studs and O 2 sensor threads with high temperature anti-seize compound. 6. Install the TBR headers into the exhaust ports making sure to get a good seat onto the exhaust port gaskets. Next, install the header nuts starting at the rear/outside stud and working your way forward on the outside set of studs. Once that is finished repeat along the inside set of studs. Tighten header nuts only finger tight at this point. 7. Be sure to coat the threads of the sensor with the included packet of hi-temp anti-seize. Install the O 2 sensor into the TBR headers. Turning the sensor in the counterclockwise direction a few times then screwing it clockwise to install will help make it easier to install and prevent the wire from binding. 8. Place a bead of the hi-temp sealant on the outside edge of the headers that goes into the canister. Slide the TBR canister onto the end of the S-bend pipe. Wipe off the excess sealant that will squeeze out. 9. 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.) Attach it to the canister support bracket using the stock BMWhardware. Both tabs of the canister clamp should be located on the inside of the canister support bracket. Leave loose for the moment. 10. Make sure everything is lined up and start to evenly tighten up the header nuts to BMWfactory torque specification. Tighten the canister support hardware and install the springs as well. 11. Start the bike and check for leaks around the exhaust ports and the header/canister junction. 12. Reinstall the lower fairing
