Maybe your muffler clamp area is deformed from being squeezed and the muffler needs to be expanded back to a normal shape.

Take it to a small local muffler shop that is sympathetic to guys with bikes, and have them expand the muffler until it just slides onto the header and gasket without a fight. (Or find a friend that has a pipe expanding tool).

Someday I will be old......But not today!

ok I think I've got the pipe sorted. no leaks! not sure how I'm going to get it apart should I need to but so far so good. if the pipe isn't far down inside the muffler enough the mounting bolts won't line up and on my case the footpeg doesn't mount easily. I was close but not close enough. I howl this thread helps anyone else who is in a similar situation.
