if it were mine...... i'd drill out the existing nut, remove the rest then pull the exhaust system. then you can use a stud removing tool. you might want to heat the stud area before turning. then replace the stud and get new nuts

Ok, went to remove my exhaust nuts and the rear exhaust nut closest to the cylinder of course is rounded (inside), there are no edges for the allen key to grab. Ive tried heating etc with no results. I had to buy an over the nut easy out for the others, but there is no room for this to slip over the nutas it's to close to the rear cylinder.

I need help!!!!!!!!!!

Just one of the little(big) things to watch out for when buying your used motorcycle....check the nuts to make sure they are not rounded, could cause problems for you down the line
