Re: Exhaust removal problem
Did the same thing last week. jacked the bike up on bottle jacks, took the wheel off, dropped the shock out, let the swing arm fall all the way down, then i took my extension bar and socket and undone the nuts which were a bastard to get at and off popped the manifold. Still up on the jacks waiting for new gaskets to arrive.

Re: Exhaust removal problem
Getting the nut off isn't the problem, depending how long it's been on for it usually needs a good whack to free it up.declangaelic wrote:it comes off easy if you have a 42 or 46 socket and a breaker barLasse wrote:Does the wheel come off easily?

Re: Exhaust removal problem
The wheel nut is a 36mm
no idea where 42 or 46mm comes from (apart from 46 needed for the bub removal)
