Hello,

I noticed that my kickstart rubs my header pipe on my 15' 450 KXF as you can see on pictures below.
The exhasut system is a FMF 4.1 RCT.
It was exactly the same with the former exhaust system. I am not worried since it does not vibrate but I don't want to damage my kickstart or titanium header in the long term.
Everything seems to be bolted correctly.

Thank you.

Seems pretty close. Mine looks like its got 1/8” to 1/4” clearance. I tried posting a pic but the pic upload doesnt seem to work for some reason. What you might be able to do is get a washer or two and put it between the mounting bracket where the muffler attaches to the subframe.

Thanks for the quick replies guy.
Will definitely add a washer !
