VANCE & HINES EXHAUST INSTALLATION

1. Install the supplied mounting bracket, 812-P, using the stock washers and bolts. Hand tighten only at this time.
2. Using a leveling tool, level the mounting bracket, 812-P, to ensure that it is parallel with the frame. See Figure 1.

3. Torque the mounting bracket bolts to 30-33 Ft./Lbs.

4. Reinstall the drive belt cover. Torque the 3/8” bolt to 30-33 FT./Lbs. and the 1/4” bolts to
   80- 120 In./Lbs.

5. Re-install brake rod, brake rod lynchpin and e-clip. Re-install foot controls.

6. Remove head pipes and heat shields from their protective packaging. Place each heat shield on a non-abrasive surface such as a blanket or carpet. Using a pencil, lightly mark outside edge of each heat shield to show location of mounting clips where hose clamps will loop through. NOTE: Pencil marks can be erased if care is taken not to harm coating.

7. Lay the head pipes into heat shields and loosely install hose clamps by feeding tail end of the hose clamps into heat shield clips. Take note of screw head direction. Figure 2.
   
   Screw heads should be accessible when system is installed on motorcycle for adjustment purposes.

8. Apply a small amount of anti-seize compound to the threads of the O2 sensors and install them into the new head pipe. Install supplied 18mm to 12mm oxygen sensor adapter then install 12mm oxygen sensors.

9. Install the exhaust port flanges and circlip from the stock system onto the new head pipes.

10. Using stock flange nuts, carefully install the head pipes into exhaust ports. Do not tighten the nuts at this time.

11. Slide nut plates inside brackets welded to backside of muffler bodies. Figure 3.

  * Install nut plate  

While holding nut plates in place, attach muffler bodies to mounting bracket 812-P using four 5/16” x 5/8” flange head bolts (supplied). Leave them loose at this time.

12. Tighten cylinder port exhaust flange nuts on front and rear cylinders while making sure pipes are parallel.

13. Tighten the flange bolts on both mufflers.

14. Tighten all heat shield clamps. NOTE: Muffler bodies should protrude from heat shields by an equal amount on both pipes. Figure 4.

    • Muffler protrudes an equal amount on both pipes

15. Plug O2 sensors back into wiring harness and route wires away from hot areas of motorcycle.

16. Install a new nylon cable tie (supplied) to hold the front wire onto the frame in the original location.

17. Check for adequate clearance of all exhaust system components and motorcycle accessories prone to heat damage.
