Thanks Guys for your response .it looks like it may be easier to drop the whole exhaust and work on it..
Hi Dennisj thank u for that .I haven't done anything as of yet,my muffler is on good,someone told me to apply heat with a torch and try twisting it .i just don't want to break anything,everything cost big on this machine .Hi TreeTop,
It has been a few weeks, and I think you are already there with the exhaust project. I needed to remove my muffler after only one thousand miles, so penetrating oil was not necessary. However, I still had to get the mufflers off the header pipes. I found that a 24" (or so) 2x3 against the joint of the muffler and a wack with a hammer worked wonderfully. I would consider penetrating oil as well as some muffler rotation in your case in addition to using the tool I suggest in the accompanying photograph. Naturally, I applied a coat of Permatex Anti-Seize Lubricant before reassembling them.
Cool. I'm happy things went smoothly for you.
Man those Mistrials are beautiful. Please let us know the fit and finish, maybe even a comment about included instructions. Are you getting full exhaust, including headers, or just mufflers? I know those mufflers will have to come off every time a back tire is changed. Don't forget the Anti-Seize on the header to muffler flange.
Please share some feedback; that would be nice, for everybody.
Has anyone modified the standard mufflers? I run leather bags and am happy with the look of the stock items, but would like a bit more noise....... any ideas?
Any photos of before and after - or when they were getting done. I'm in Australia so will need to get done locallyI had Todd do mine. Cut them open, pulled out the cats and punched the baffles. They look bone stock but have a pleasing rumble without the harsh bark of the aftermarket muffs

Hi Buzz, found the youtube clip of your bike - sounds better than stock. Have you had any issues since the modifications?
