Message: [QUOTE="YZ/250, post: 1227610, member: 74301"] My friend and I just bought new KTMs this summer.... check the silencer nut on the end of the pipe. He lost his end cap and nut after a few hours of riding his new bike. The packing was coming out of the pipe before he noticed it. I bought my bike a few months after he bought his, and I checked out my silencer and tightened up the nut two weeks ago. Hah!! I figured that was an easy fix until yesterday I looked down and theres the packing hanging out of the silencer! Has this problem happened to anyone else? Im thinking lock-tite next time. I just wonder how it will do with the heat. I called the dealer today and ordered the o-ring, spacer, end cap, and nut. Warranty covered the parts on my friends bike, so I guess we will see what happens with mine. [/QUOTE]
