Harley exhaust removal?

Question

Need to remove exhaust for forward control installation.I need info on how to remove the the exhaust on 2009 harley 883 low.It is necessary for brake linkage install.Thanks

Answer 1

Some exhaust won;t fit with forward controls...you should research first.

Answer 2

just drive it a little longer and they will fall off.... lol

I'm sorry, honestly just look at what bolts hold it  on. a couple at each cylinder and then a few back at the mufflers that should be it easy to remove.

Answer 3

you shouldn't have to remove the exhaust to install forward controls ,remove the existing linkage where it connects under the bike then remove the foot peg and brake lever it should all slide out now .

when you install the forward controls install the longer brake linkage last  

Answer 4

take the nuts off the studs (2) at the head and the support bolts out and your exhaust will be off, takes 5 minutes.  you probably only have to do the front pipe, the rear pipe shouldn't interfere.

there are thin gaskets for resealing the pipes to the heads, sometimes you get away with re-using them, sometimes you can't so buy a set in advance.
