Help! Trouble removing of stock exhaust on 2009 1125CR.

Those look like the short version, the ones I have are a little longer

LMFAO, of course they are

I'd post pics, but we don't wanna go there, do we?

What the...
...a tool size shoot out?
Crikey, I'm outa here! Haha

Here's the wondrous DIY tool that I put together with on-hand bits n pieces. And it worked just fine for freeing and getting that dreaded cap screw out.

In use - taking it out.

And around on the left side of the bike, taking out the 6mm cap screw that holds the rear left exhaust mount, accessed through the tensioning pulley.

Back to right side. With front pipe clamps loose... rear brake gear unscrewed and dangling (or better is with cable tie holding it up out of the way)... wiggle stock exhaust and drop gently onto some of my darlings best blankets. Shhhh!

Stock exhaust off.
Now for the easy part... fitting the new Barker system!!

Well, the Barker system went on so easily, it was done before I realised that I'd not taken any shots. Anyway, here is the Barker system - job completed! Sounds brutal!!

I may add some shots showing the three different Barker Quiet Core options.
Also, If there any close up shots (of any of this) that anybody needs please feel free to ask me.

The CR now with the new Barker system.
