there is a special low profile tool to remove the bracket:
http://www.jpcycles.com/product/910-883 I put on V&H BSS and never bothered removing that bracket, it's really not visable unless you really look for it |
Thank you coop creek, just got Cobra Speedster exhaust and was thinking of removing this bracket.
Looked in my service manual but didnt see it. Thanks for the info. |
Its been awhile since i did mine but can remember cutting an old torx bit and useing a 1/4 " openend/ box wrench.

Why not paint it wrinkle or flat black.
No one is ever going to know it's there till you point it out to em. |

Or maybe leave it and chain lock bike thru that loop thru light pole while a rallies. |
I never removed one but I reinstalled one that the previous owner took off-with a die grinder by the looks of it. Anyway, I used hex head capscrews this time- I don't know why they don't do that to begin with- makes everything a lot easier.

I used three different types of Torx bits. Two different socket kinds, one from Sears, one a no-name, and one of those T handled drivers. Took a lot of muscle, but I got it off.

Thanks, I got a short torx wrench from Harbor Freight under $5 and got it off. New pipes installed 3-4 hours. Just not sure about 90 -120 fp on the head bolts. I know the manual calls for this.
