Nødvendige værktøjer: Basic mechanic's tool set (wrenches, sockets, screwdrivers), torque wrench.

1. Forberedelse:
   • Ensure the scooter engine is completely cool.
   • Place the scooter on a stable stand.
   • Locate and identify all components from the package contents.
2. Removal of Original Exhaust System:
   • Loosen and remove the bolts securing the original exhaust manifold to the cylinder head.
   • Remove any mounting bolts or clamps holding the original exhaust system to the frame.
   • Carefully detach and remove the entire original exhaust system. Retain any reusable hardware if instructed by your scooter's service manual.
3. Installation of New Exhaust System:
   • Install the new exhaust gasket (if provided) onto the cylinder head exhaust port.
   • Position the LeoVince exhaust pipe onto the cylinder head studs. Hand-tighten the manifold nuts.
   • Attach the mounting bracket(s) to the scooter frame using the provided hardware. Do not fully tighten yet.
   • Connect the silencer to the exhaust pipe using the provided springs and clamp. Ensure a secure fit.
   • Align the exhaust system to ensure proper clearance from other vehicle components.
   • Gradually tighten all mounting bolts and nuts, starting from the cylinder head, then the frame bracket, and finally the silencer clamp. Refer to your scooter's service manual for specific torque specifications for cylinder head bolts.
4. Endelig kontrol:
   • Verify all connections are secure and there are no leaks.
   • Ensure the exhaust system does not interfere with any moving parts or other components.
   • Start the engine and check for any unusual noises or exhaust leaks. Allow the engine to reach operating temperature to observe any expansion-related issues.

5. Driftsmæssige overvejelser

After installation, a brief break-in period is recommended. During the first 50-100 kilometers (30-60 miles), avoid prolonged high-RPM operation and sudden acceleration. This allows the exhaust system components to settle and the gaskets to fully seal. The sound of the exhaust may change slightly after the break-in period.

6. Vedligeholdelse

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your LeoVince exhaust system:

• Rensning: Clean the exhaust system regularly with a mild detergent and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish. For the carbon fiber silencer, use a dedicated carbon fiber cleaner.
• Inspektion: Periodically inspect all mounting points, bolts, springs, and clamps for tightness. Vibrations can cause fasteners to loosen over time.
• Pakningskontrol: Check the exhaust gasket at the cylinder head for signs of leakage (e.g., black soot). Replace if necessary.
• Silencer Repacking: Over time, the sound-absorbing material inside the silencer may degrade. If the exhaust sound becomes excessively loud, the silencer may require repacking. Consult a qualified mechanic or LeoVince service center for this procedure.
