Edited with a better photo



Right is the exhaust and you can see how much more wear it's showing than it's buddy. if you look at the full resolution version you can seem more of the chatter marks on the bearing.

Fixed that for you

That's what I get for trying to copy from inside my own post as opposed to jsut grabbing the image path again. Oh well.

But yes, - you can see, twice, that the exhaust is not happy. On a good note it's super simple to replace them. Hardest part was geting the air box out.
Once that's done, 4 bolts for the valve cover - which is huge and gives you easy access for top end work. Each rocker is on a big pin held in my two bolts. Take them out, use one to pull out the pin (it's threaded for it) and the rocker's out.

Super easy... just make sure you put the rocker pins back in the right way, they do have a top and bottom. Good thing is that the bolts pass through them so as long as you get the right side up you cannot misalign them. *almost* dummy proof.

Some one will come along and build a better dummy...I am usually the dummy that f*ck's up "dummy proof" designs.

That's why I have a tech manual. heads off a lot of potential dummy moments.
Though, as good as the KTM manuals are I've found some big issues... like there is *nothing* about how to remove/service/do anything regarding the rear swing arm. Zip zero nada... a bit shocked that it's totally left out. They have how you pull the shock and it stops there.
