Now, remove and heat the pipe with a blow dryer or heat gun from the outside, as the heat expands the outer pipe, the baffle will remain cold and will just fall right out(with some light tapping).
What he said, it's because HD baffles are press fit at the front of the pipe. My SE's were a PIA, but ended up getting a good deal on some V&H slip ons.

Generally in the past I just squirted some penetrating oil in the outlet of the pipe where the baffle meets the outer housing, let it soak for an hour, go do something else, come back squirt a little more and then couple light raps with the hammer and it falls right out. When you put it or some other baffle (bct baffs) back in it will smoke a little when it warms up but otherwise good to go.
