Termi Tips?

[CCEMN1]

I have a 2007 S4RS. I'm putting a full Termi system on, but am having the damndest time getting the rear, or vertical cylinder head pipe off!
I have everything else off & disconnected, but it's looking like I might have to remove the Ohlins shock & linkage to get this head pipe off? I've already hung the rear from the garage ceiling, lifting the rear wheel off the ground & unloading the suspension, but it's still looking pretty impossible.
Anyone who's been there got any tips, short of firing up the torch?
Thanks guys!

I got in there with the app. sized wrench and turned it 1 degf. at a time and then reset the wrench.  A giant pain in the balls, but it got the job done, with less work than you have already put in with trying to unload the suspension and all.

Just my $.02

I've got it completely unbolted! I guess I should have explained that? With all the nuts off, I still can't remove it off the studs! Seems like there's not enough clearance?

Your going in the wrong direction to get the pipe off. Have a friend push the bike down in the rear. the pipe nearly falls out by itself when you get the rear compressed enough.

I think she is having a hard time mixing cake batter.

No, she's trying to get the rear head pipe off! I think she's almost there!
