rush baffles
sorry if this has already been answered but I did not find much when I searched. I installed a rush full system to my bike about 3 months ago. I just added a big sucker 2 intake and I wanted to take the baffles out of my pipes. I took the bolt out the back side that hold the baffle in place and then I was lost. tried a few things but no luck. I searched the web and they said to put vice grips on the extraction bar and pull and twist. so I said cool but I did not remember seeing any kind of bar. well I looked in the pipe with a light and there is no bar. anyone have any suggestions?

Don't know about the full system, but the Rush slip on muffs use baffles that have a 'grab bar' inside located just above the lock nut - see pic. I spray some WD-40 on the baffle end, then knock out the baffle from the other side using a piece of pipe set against the grab bar. With the full sysytem you won't have that option and will have to use a slide hammer or chain with a hook to yank out the baffle. Hope you get it worked out.

I made an improvised slide hammer to remove baffles. It's a 24" piece of 1/2" black pipe with a screw which has the head cut off on one end. The other end is a slide and a fitting to stop the slide. Works good.
The screw hooks the far end of the baffle in the exh pipe.
