June 2, 20179 yr I buy a ST290 and they gift me a new 2014 exhaust but i can't fit on my '13. What should I remove to fit it? I removed the carburator but no the rear shock I am going crazy . I think this is too big Sorry for my english . Thanks!!! Edited June 2, 20179 yr by otter237
June 2, 20179 yr I disagree. The exhaust with the plastic tip is off a rear tanker , a 2014 or early 15. The later 2015 and onwards, with the fuel tank in the front, have much longer plastic tips. 2013 and before don't have a plastic tip. Edited June 2, 20179 yr by stpauls
June 3, 20179 yr That is the right rear exhaust, you will need to take the shock out, from memory the mounts are slightly different so you may have to do a bit of drilling/fileing to make it work, hopefully you have the 2014/15 sherco front exhaust to otherwise it won't work without an adaptor.

June 3, 20179 yr I have a yellow framed 2014, like the bike in the RCM Trailsport photo above. I have removed both my silencer and front pipe several times. I didn't remove the rear shock to do it. From memory I removed the rear mudguard, inner rear mudguard, top air filter housing and the plastic trim attached to the silencer. The silencer is held in by several bolts, some of which are not immediately apparent. You have to wriggle the silencer about and it just slips out easily. Simple. Our cat could do it! However, I have no idea if an adapter is required. The awkward bit is refitting the air box connector back on to the carb. Tricky and awkward. Use a small smear of grease on the two ends to help them slip together.
June 3, 20179 yr Author This afternoon i try, remove silencer's plastic trim and for last remove the rear shock. I wanna buy a new 2014 front pipe or build an adaptor because i don't find a Sherco adaptor My old exhaust is full of oil/carbon, inside is totally black and i can't open it. Maybe i must cut in 2 piece or burn
June 3, 20179 yr Author With the shock on doesn't fit, i try try but nothing . For remove the shock i need Allen wrench n.9 , i must buy it.
June 3, 20179 yr Take another photo of the silencer, but this time not from above. Get down on your knees, so that your camera is the same height as the silencer.
June 4, 20179 yr Author Yes, i think is melted buy the previous owner... but it works . I will buying a new one. little offtopic : Wich shock is that? The tampon is Ohlins
June 5, 20179 yr The ''Tampon''...... is clearly Ohlins...... the shock looks like an Olle to me. Boy...that is one nasty spot for a fuel hose down beside the chain and rear tire...no way around it with the design though
June 5, 20179 yr Author The fuel hose is not too close at the chain & rear tire and it doesn't move , i think this is the only way Maybe Saturday i get off the rear shock Edited June 5, 20179 yr by otter237
