Yoshimura · RS-3
The Yoshimura RS-3 Premium Muffler Repack Kit is a replacement service parts solution designed to refresh packing in Yoshimura Road exhaust systems at the recommended service interval of 7,000 - 10,000 miles. By replacing dirty, airflow-restricting packing, it helps the exhaust perform as intended and brings the sound back in line with how the system was designed.
This kit is listed for a wide range of applications, including Honda CB1100 2013, Honda Monkey 2019–2026, Kawasaki Z1000 2003–2007, and Suzuki Hayabusa 2008–2020 (see the fitment table for the full model list and years).
Engineering
This RS-3 repack kit includes the core consumables needed to service an RS-3 muffler, combining premium packing material with the hardware required to reassemble the canister after maintenance. It is intended to support proper muffler upkeep so the system continues to function the way it was engineered.
Materials
To support reassembly after servicing, the kit supplies stainless rivets identified as C3-RIVET, with 16 pieces included. Having the specified rivets on hand helps streamline the repack process and keeps the rebuild aligned with the intended hardware style for this service.
Included
The kit also includes rivet bands listed as LC4.5RL, with 2 pieces included. These bands are part of the repack hardware set and are provided alongside the packing material and rivets to help complete the muffler service in one package.
Performance
Yoshimura states that its Road exhaust systems need to be repacked every 7,000 - 10,000 miles. Following that interval is described as essential to keep the exhaust performing the way it was designed. The manufacturer explains that dirty packing restricts airflow from the motor, which leads to loss of power and a degradation of sound, while repacking restores freer airflow, restores lost power, and improves the exhaust sound.
Fitment
This RS-3 repack kit is listed for multiple Honda, Kawasaki, and Suzuki applications. Fitment includes models such as Honda CBR1100XX 1997–2007, Honda CBR600F4i 2001–2006, Honda CRF50F 2004–2018, Kawasaki ZX-6R 2003–2004, and Suzuki Hayabusa 2008–2020. For accuracy, the complete make, model, and year coverage should be confirmed using the fitment table on the page.
Installation
As part of Yoshimura’s Replacement Service Parts line for the RS-3 series, this kit is built around routine muffler maintenance rather than a one-time upgrade. An installation PDF is provided on the page for reference during the repack process, helping ensure the components supplied in the kit are used as intended during disassembly and reassembly.
