symptoms? ( muffler repacking)
Hey Y'all
What are the early symptoms, it's time to repack the muffler?
I'm at 43,000+ and things "SEEM OK".
I hear (read) some talk like its standard, like replacing a spark plug, or changing oil.
And of course the "clean out" plugs are pretty much worthless, since they don't come out. (lol)

<><><><><> <><><><><> Mark, The stock KLR muffler doesn't have anything to pack/repack. That is usually reserved for some aftermarket mufflers. The stock muffler might have a baffle inside rust and loosen. I've heard of a few cases where it blocked exhaust flow and limited engine rpm. Tweedy is also something that happens with the stock muffler and the common "fix" is to open a few slits by driving a screwdriver in the baffle through the opening in the rear of the muffler. Best,
