Same way I did mine. Was no problem at all with a metre-long bar. Bought a 
torque wrench nearly that long fairly cheaply, and tightened it up with ease 
too.

BTW it's not a stake nut on the front sprocket, it's a lockwasher. Mine had 
already been re-used once, I had no problem re-using it again. The rear hub 
nut is staked. It's hard to see how you could remove it, never mind re-stake 
it, without it cracking - so replace it if disturbed. I had to remove my hub 
assembly for greasing. Getting the large circlip off was the only difficult 
part.

I didn't remove any fairings, so kept the bar pointing towards the rear of the 
bike, no problems.

It places large stresses on the gearbox gear teeth - so I heard.

Any suggestions??

Congrats on the ST, Ted. I have an 01 with a Two Brothers Carbon can and have been very happy with it. Opens up the sound a bit but keeps it neighborhood friendly.
