I have a '95 600 and am going to put on a 98+ exhaust. I'm not really mechanically inclided. Do you think I'm going to be able to pull off the old exhaust, dent the collector, and put the new exhaust on? Should this be left to the bike shop? I'm worried I'm going to get the old exhaust off and then get stuck and my bike won't be driveable.

You should be able to do it... so long as your header bolts aren't rusted out.
To hang the can, I used a 4" insulted pipe hanger I found at Lowes.-Steve

No, I was using an alan wrench. The screws that were in the stock exhaust came out pretty easy. Great, I'm going to need to get it tow'd to the shop. Will it hurt the bike to let it run like this? I only had it on for a few seconds and didn't let it warm up.

You didn't lose an exhaust gasket did you?
Sounds like they aren't torqued enough.... I think it's only like 16.5 ft/lbs for the header bolts...-Steve
