I had no trouble fishing out the cut plates with a hook bent in a coat hanger. It is still pretty quiet, but has a really nice tone. Not like the original "whoosh" of a Jetson's space ship! I'm still looking for a quiet solution to eliminating rider felt heat.
You can wrap the exhaust with header wrap. Should reduce the heat felt in your legs by about 50% from what I have read. I try to ride highway so the heat is not an issue for me unless I get stuck in traffic.
