Title: Question about newly installed termis
Post by: R2 on November 13, 2008, 12:05:06 AM
I spent this afternoon installing the CF Termis on my 696. I pulled out the db killers and fired it up, I only let it run for a few minutes because my brothers dog was freaking out. So here is my question: Is it normal for smoke to come out of them for awhile when they are new? I figure it's just burning off oils from the factory or something. Anyone else have this happen. Thanks in advance. - ryan

My dealer told me to expect something similar after I had my Termi's fitted, he said I may even get a burning smell from them, just ignore unless it get's really bad, It smoked a little after I shut the bike down, and have never done it since.

Cool. It kept smoking for a few minutes after I shut it down. Thanks! [thumbsup]

It happens in cars as well. It's just the oil and whatnot in the exhaust packing and manufacturing material.  [beer]

When I installed a LeoVince pipe on my scooter, it smoked even after the first few rides.

Thanks for your replies! When I started it up today it didn't smoke at all.  :)
