Author Message   Buellster42 Posted on Tuesday, December 23, 2003 - 02:58 pm:        I couldn't find the archive for exhaust removal. Can anyone help, thanks.   Spyder12s Posted on Tuesday, December 23, 2003 - 03:07 pm:        easy...remove chin spoiler ..unbolt clamps get an extension for the rear clamps ...snake through the idler pulley for the rear ..little wiggle and shake should come right off edited by spyder12s on December 23, 2003   Fullpower Posted on Tuesday, December 23, 2003 - 03:09 pm:        if it is an XB you are working on, it involves the following step: rotate engine down for service. you will want the factory service manual in hand for that job. really. dean   Buellster42 Posted on Tuesday, December 23, 2003 - 03:10 pm:        Thanks. Do you know the size for the size(tool) needed in the extention?   Fullpower Posted on Tuesday, December 23, 2003 - 03:11 pm:        well what do you mean by " exhaust" if you are just pulling the muffler, that is real straigh forward, no tricks involved. i f you are pulling the exhaust PIPES, that is a bigger deal. dean   Buellster42 Posted on Tuesday, December 23, 2003 - 03:12 pm:        I'm pulling the muffler.   Fullpower Posted on Tuesday, December 23, 2003 - 03:16 pm:        muffler's no big deal. everything is real easy to reach. pull the plastic and proceed, 4 clamps is all there is to it.   Spyder12s Posted on Tuesday, December 23, 2003 - 03:35 pm:        I want to say its a 13mm deep but I really dont remember I used a 1/4 in ratchet   147db Posted on Tuesday, December 23, 2003 - 04:20 pm:        Here are some more instructions... http://www.147dB.com/varie/muffler_removal_01.JPG http://www.147dB.com/varie/muffler_removal_02.JPG http://www.147dB.com/varie/muffler_removal_03.JPG Bye!   Spyder12s Posted on Tuesday, December 23, 2003 - 04:42 pm:        it can be done with out removing the pulley..just remove the sproket cover   Kaese Posted on Tuesday, December 23, 2003 - 07:38 pm:        I wasn't able to get any socket or universal to work on mine and had to loosen the wheel to get to that stinking rear clamp. When I did put the muffler back on, I moved the bolts on the clamp around 180 deg so I could access them on the other side, just in case I need to remove the muffler again.   Leeaw Posted on Wednesday, December 24, 2003 - 05:49 pm:        A swivel ratchet and a swivel adapter allowed me to take the muffler off without removing or loosening anything else. I stuck the ratchet through the holes on the pulley. Very easy.   Wyckedflesh Posted on Wednesday, December 24, 2003 - 06:23 pm:        quarter drive socket, the extension fits through the holes easily.   Buellster42 Posted on Wednesday, December 24, 2003 - 09:03 pm:        Muffler removed and exhaust (prototype) installed. Sounds like a Harley on steriods. My next step is to install a cone to create the back presure, also to keep from burning my lifters & a race module. Thanks for the help.
