Im trying to replace the starter on a 1998 Kawasaki 1100 ZXI, to access the starter I have to remove the exhaust manifold and muffler. I've loosened all the bolts on both pieces but I don't see how to get either of them out due to clearence. I can't slide the exhaust manifold off the bolts all the way because it hits the muffler and if I try to push it on all the way and pick up the muffler to bring it out it hits the manifold. (I think Kawasaki did this on purpose so you would bring it back to them) I've thought about trying to slide the gas and oil tank forward to see if I can slide the muffler in there why I remove the exhaust manifold, any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
