Title: Baffle Removal from Arrow Exhaust
Post by: thejsnide on January 07, 2009, 12:51:42 PM
I just picked up a set of used CF Arrow high mounts for my 05 620 off eBay.  The install was really easy but when I turned the bike on, I expected more.  So, as the title states, how do I remove the baffles?

They may have dB killers in 'em, can you post a pic of the outlet?

Does that mean I would not be able to make them louder?

Sorry, I don't know much about exhausts... Here's a pic, hopefully that helps...

those appear to be the same canisters as the arrow carby's
on my speed triple...
in that case, remove that snapring you see inside the outlet there, then grab
the smaller diameter inner pipe with a pair of needle nose pliers and
pull like hell.....
i swear it feels like youre gonna break something or theyre welded in there,
but i dunno if its adhesive or just a tight press-fit , but theyre a bear to get moving....
but thats all thats holding them in place, just that lil' snapring you can see in your pic...
takes about 5 minutes. ;)

Like lazarus said, remove the snapring and pull the center part out.

I'll admit when I installed them and fired them up for the first time, my initial reaction was "That's it?"  Not anymore.  Thanks again for helping me out before the sun went down.
