Hopefully dual 21" screens should be able to cope, I can always seperate them a bit get a bit more width if it's really needed

Watch it!!!!

Secure a duster with rubber bands over the end of a normal household hammer and gently tap in an upward, downward and sideways fashion the offending baffle, should eventually loosen and pull out. This method worked on my XT660X.

Thanks Thumper, will give it another bash - pardon the pun and Squiffy, thank you kindly sir!!!

But be careful- the carbon fibre sleeves are fairly delicate and if you hit the cans too hard they will break.
I'd suggest popping over to Snells and asking them to do it.

Cheers Anne and great to see you yesterday plus my mate's flat is lovely, I managed to find it )

when i got the baffles out of my Zards, i let the bike run for a few mins to warm up and (i presume) let the metal of the exhaust 'innards' expand a bit. i then used a pair of needle nosed pliers and wiggle the baffles about untill they came free.

Removable baffles are sometimes held in by a large circlip, so make sure this is removed before you try to get them out? Older termi baffles (if fitted) are usually held in by an allen bolt through the end cap.
