Exhaust Concerns

[ScootDawg17]

After my last trip to MI my '08 Nytro RTX sounds a louder like I blew a baffle out. However, I don't hear any rattling like I would expect if it was a baffle that came loose. I also haven't found any apparent exhaust leaks. Any ideas? I'm concerned that I may cause further damage to the engine if I keep running it.

Might want to check your donuts.

X2 on donuts have to replace mine again

Thanks! Will I do any damage running it prior to replacing them?

Just had 2 of my flex joints replaced under warranty. They were both cracked. Glad I got Y.E.S. No it won't harm the engine, you may get some back firing when letting of the throttle but nothing that would hurt the motor.

replace dounuts

get the copper ones they will last longer and only cost a couple of bucks more a piece...my originals were gone by 1800 miles.....kinda of a task to get to them but it only takes a hour or two
