I am trying to remove the stock mufflers on my 07 fatboy to install the Rush slip-ons......
There are Six 3/8" bolts holding them to the mounting bracket...Access is next to impossible...
Unless, is there a "Special" tool to access these without removing the whole exhaust system?
Any suggestions??

 

all i needed was a combination wrench, 3/8 drive ratchet with 6" extension & angle adapter

 

you must be looking at it wrong , my mate just put on his rush pipes only yesterday arvo on his 08 fatty .. took him around 15+ mins

 

Tks t_jams......I figured it was somethin like that.....

Hey grzly......my wife's from Sydney....didn't help me out here tho.:~)

 

didn;t spot tjams response and i jumped in before you took off the entire pipe - knew someone here would have the exact response.

 

No worries......got em on.........took a test ride.....sounds and runs Nice....weird smell at end of ride
tho...maybe just " breakin in smell ??".........Louder than I thought 1.75's would be tho.....

 

My mate said this morning the exact same thing re sound on the 1.75's... and he has listened to my bike a few times the past week. you might find that they mellow a bit once settled in ( he didn;t mention a smell )

 

Don't count on it. I believe mine have actually gotten louder since I put them on1500 miles ago.

 

damn .. better get my hearing checked

 

I just needed a 3/8 wrench and some band-aids
