Slip-on Installation...?
Is there anything to it besides taking off the old pipe and parts that get in the way and slapping on the new one? If i have to torque anything down or deal with lock-tyte or high temp sealant i will pay the dealer to do it.
A little help?

Your slip-on should come with everything you need...I'm sure there's some torque specs, but I didn't use them, I just tightened things down the goo 'ole cave man way... [&:]

I just don't trust the damn grease monkeys at the shop w/ my cf exhaust and man handling the sucker when i'm not around. I think i might leave the tire to them and do the pipe myself.
Can anyone take a pic of their bike and circle or point to where the mid pipe is or just take a pic of a bike and point it out. I would like to know what i am getting into before tackling it.
I can tell you this, I installed my yosh rs-5 slip on myself. The one thing I almost didn't realize is that there is a gasket on the stock pipe that didn't come with my slip on. So I had to bend the tabs back to pull the gasket out on the stock pipe and use on the new. You have to be careful when doing it too cause you can damage that gasket if you try to man handle it out of there. Just a little something I figured out in the process of installing mine, and it could have been a big headache if i didn't catch it. Hope the info is usefull. Good luck, and ride safe.
