I just installed a new exhaust and I have never tinkered with an rr before. It took me a lil over 1 hour from removing the rear seat to reinstalling the seat and starting it up. Very easy in my opinion. So the passenger pegs should be cake. 2 allen head bolts on each side and your done. It shouldnt take any longer than 15 minutes tops. Dont worry about flexing the tail, I was a little nervous at first but it was fine.
