I've honestly never "repacked" a silencer so i do not exactly know what it does involve (opening the can, removing the stuff, stuffing back stuff (glass wool thingy ?), closing the can)

I do not think it is very complicated/long, after all I can replace clutch plates, change chain and sprockets and other stuff... but it's just the hassle. But hey, maybe it's just a simple thing in comparison of the weight gain/increased throttle response/nicer sound ?
