I just can't believe anyone having that kind of trouble. My top one was tight, but not like that. Maybe a lot of carbon build up in there has the baffled "glued" to the inside. If yours are new they should come out nice and easy.

Just installed the BCT in my short shots this morning, managed to get a couple hundred KM in. When I first fired em up I was impressed, it was a deeper tone and didnt have the loud ping noise. I didnt notice or feel much of a performance gain, however I no longer get popping on deceleration.
One issue I had was I couldnt get the baffle into the 6'' point on the bottom pipe, after I already drilled the hole at 6 inches. It was literally about 1 mm or so off, so I had to open the hole a little more. So now there is a very small (less than 1 mm) gap, but I figured it should be fine. Other than that small issue, the install was a breeze! 30-45 minutes max! (including removal and installation of heat shield.
Overall, I'm very happy! even considering I paid 130 CAD, and then 55 CAD at the door for the damn brokerage and duty fees.

Just installed a set of BCTs into my SE IIs. The sound is awesome and the bike performs great. It sounds like I think a Harley should sound like.
I used a canned SERT map with my SE AC and SE IIs. I did not have to remap with the BCTs and the plugs look great and don't appear to be running lean.
