Exhaust header to mid seal replacement

Recommended Posts

I need to replace the 2 seals between the exhaust header and mid section on my 2024 TXT Pro Racing.

Any advice? Remove header or mid box?

I looked at removing the header pipe but can't see how i can get the lower hex bolt out of the barrel as the exhaust is in the way. A normal Allen key will go on but will only turn a few mm before it hits the exhaust or sump guard/frame. 

Any help/tips much appreciated. Thanks.

 Hello cut a bit off the allen key to get in there better and work it slowly then swap it for a normal bolt with two or three washers when you put it back on ...... or use a flexi extension to get on the allen bolt.

use the long end of the Allen key to access the bolt. then use a wrench (5mm I think) on the Allen key to loosen.

It is easier with "ball-end" Allen keys.
