Title: EXUP Question
Post by: FazerSimon on 24 January 2019, 06:09:24 pm

What are the two bolts on the opposite side of the exhaust from the EXUP cover-plate for?


They are located behind where the internal bush of the EXUP valve is situated.

More importantly, you seem to have dripped black paint on your exhaust!!

Daft as it sounds, the bolts are to hold the cover plate and that's all. :)

I must say I thought these cap screws were simply blanking off two access points so that you could put a pin punch in there to drift out the bush supporting the end of the valve if it needed replaced.  I did not think there was a blanking plate on there.

I think you're right. :) 


I've never removed them on my bike so assumed that it was a cover plate, too. 


Access to drift out the inner bush makes perfect sense.
