Brand new sled with 70 miles on her. Having an epic day of riding today, and this afternoon I noticed a slight bog at times on the bottom end. I started looking around and found that my little brass nipple on my mag side exhaust valve had come out, still attached to the hose. It was burping oil, so it was easy to spot. Does anybody know if these are glued or pressed in?
14 800 exhaust valve nipple just fell out!

just pressed in to my knowledge.
That's what I was thinking.
Yep... just pressed in.
Clean it well with a scotchbrite pad or steel wool...and use locktite bearing retainer on it... easier than taking it to the dealer .

My nipple fits pretty loose in the hole. Is there a possibility the brass nipple is slightly too small, or would the loctite tighten things up? Thanks for the replies! My dealer is an hour away. If I can fix it myself, that would save me a couple trips to the dealer.
