block off plates(one for each cylinder)
Questions:
Many people
ask are these hard to install? I do not think so but it all depends
on your mechanical ability.
I also get asked do these add horse
power? No! They remove the pair valve which is a smog device that
pumps air into the exhaust.
Most people remove the pair valve when
they are installing an aftermarket exhaust. The pair valve can make
your new exhaust pop on deceleration. That is the main reason people
remove it along with the weight savings.
Where do these go is
also a popular question. These block off the ports on the head, just
above each exhaust tube coming out of the head you will see a small
tube about 1/2 in diameter (see picture), that is the tube that goes
to the pair valve. The plates cover the little hole in the head underneath
that tube. You can not see them with the body work on the bike.
Installation:
1. Remove Body panels and prop up tank.
2. Disconnect pairvalve tubes frim exhaust ports and clean surface.
3. Remove large rubber hose from pair valve. You will need
to plug this hose you can follow this hose it goes up to the air box.
4. Remove small rubber hose from pair valve. You will need to plug this
hose also. You can follow this hose to the throttle body.
(some people cut the hose short then fill the hose with red high temp
silicone and let it dry, others use a plug of some sort like a dowell
and then use a hose clamp to plug the hose do what you like best)
5. Unbolt pair valve assemby from mounting base. Remove pair valve.
6. Install pair valve block off plates. We also sell a gasket kit
. PM-9G
7. Re-assemble bike
