Take off your pillion pad or cowl and you will see two rearward facing allen bolts going into and through a rear cross member. These are your muffler mounting posts. Changing a muffler on a BMW has never been so easy.
Can't say much on the assembly of the Laser cans though, that will add the perplexity right back into the equation.

Bobby-
Its been a while since I took mine off, but the cans just slide rearward off those posts (after disconnecting the clamp that holds the cans to the pipe), right?

I've finished installing the Laser! Unfortunately, I forgot to tighten the bolts holding the cans to the bracket. aaarrgh!!!
I have to do it agaiin tomorrow night. first impression: the Laser with the quiet baffle is just barely louder than the oem mufflers. The laser that I got didn't have the sport baffle(?). The tone is deeper than oem though. The cable loom for the brake light now has nowhere to screw onto. |
