    I was cleaning my bike today, and I noticed that my right side muffle is loose, I checked both bolts (the clamp, and the passenger foot peg) and they were both snug.

    Is there anything I can do?

    So what exactly is loose? I'm thinking you're meaning that you can jiggle the actual muffler end by the footpeg? Could just be rusted bolts that need replacing to get it actually TIGHT.

    Yes, the actual muffle connected at the passenger foot peg is moveable.
