Reply With QuoteSounds like a horrible time, drink some beers to ease the pain
So I was trying to put my stock muffler back on only to realize that the Buell Racing exhaust's rear aluminum mount (the half-moon thing) is thicker than the stock one. And I sure didn't want to drain the oil just to remove that stupid oil line that goes right through the mount.
While trying to put the racing muffler back on, I got poked in the eye...twice... by that nipple thing on the end of the rider footpeg. That really hurts.
I must have been doing it the wrong way: the rear muffler band nuts were all but impossible to get back on. I finally decided to thread the nut first, and THEN squeeze the rear bands over the muffler. It worked, but I also sliced my hand on the band and got blood all over my nice white muffler.

See, didn't your mother tell you, "Motorcycles are dangerous!"
wow, i thought i was the only guy that had that kind of luck! stop whatever ur doing and consume ample amounts of beer until u've forgotten why the f$%k ur hand and ur eye hurt or they no longer hurt :D
Unscrew the feelers. Problem solved.
The only headache that I have ever had with my bike is taking the header off no engine rotate. One thing I can tell you is take a break and have a beer like evryone else said or just leave it for a couple mins and come back and it seems to become alot easier.
Red rider bb gun............you'll shoot your eye out!See, didn't your mother tell you, "Motorcycles are dangerous!"
Suck dude! The same eye or did you manage both?
Not necessarily off-topic, I mounted my race can using the stock mounts. Bad idea?
Should have been no diff in the rear mount. Race can shares the same dimensions as stock.
