How to Take Apart a Pro Circuit 296 Spark Arrestor

The 296 Spark Arrestor is an after-market motorcycle exhaust system by Pro Circuit designed to fit on racing motorcycles, including Hondas with four-stroke engines like those in the XR series. If the owner wants to modify the spark arrestor, they can open up the piece and remove the baffles, which will produce a louder engine sound.
