That's why the gears was changing so clunky. I think the mechanic misread the manual. They are suppose to fill the oil level to the minimum when the bike is on the side stand, but the manual doesn't clarify that. The mechanic filled the oil to the minimum when the bike is in the upright position on their service stands, which means on the lean position there is no oil.

I didn't have any "silver tape". It is more like a sticky fiberglass roll? If so, mine did not come with it, but typically that can be used at the connecting pipe. When you take your factory exhaust off, you will probably see the same thing where the pipes connect. On an older bike, when you take an exhaust off, the exhaust seal can fall apart, so if you notice that with yours, the "tape" can probably be used as a replacement. Without seeing it, I cannot answer for sure, but that's my best guest.

@@ROBSOLUTELY some slip on can's have been Dyno tested and show some gains... Up to around 1.5-2.5% ... One might notice that on track times but doubt it makes any real difference on a road... Full exhaust systems and ECU flash can see gains of 5-7% but uses more fuel and not sure of impact on the life of the motor. I love that my ninja sees up 210+ miles on a tank with some careful riding.... Was really nice when touring northern Scotland. R7 gets around 150 miles only, but I may have been enjoying the extra power a bit much lol

Actually, a slip-on makes it sound better......the stock muffler with a cat delete will sound just as good with better performance and it will run cooler.....just fab up a mid pipe, break out the TIG welder and your in business.

I did have the baffle installed. However, I have switched to the Yoshimura AT2 now. It's a better exhaust.

@@infadel885 Yes, They don't let you post links in comments, but if you search my channel to find my Yoshimura install video, there is a link in the description of that video.

The springs are loose because its a knockoff/imitation exhaust. Not talking shit im here because im looking for an exhaust but all these exhausts are cheap knockoffs.

It's a generic brand, but for now, it's what is available. It's actually quite good for what it is. KO Lightning is it's own brand.

@@ROBSOLUTELY pretty sure KZread is deleting my response for including a link but Google "project SC fake exhausts". It isn't a generic brand it's a counterfeit. They are straight out of China.

@@SenateKT-uc2id If the exhaust says SC Projects on it, and it's actually a KO lightning, then it's a knock-off, generic. But when they put their own brand on it, it's not really a knock off. I have noticed many KO Lightning exhausts with SC Projects, Akrapovic, Yoshimura logos. In those cases, it's a generic knock off. Same exhaust, but at least I went with one that they brand in their own name. At this time, I am not seeing brand names make slip-ons for the bike yet. Give it a year or two and see what comes out. Until then, China exhausts are what's available. Honestly, the KO lightning that I have on mine is good.
