Here's a little write-up I did on replacing the midsection of the exhaust of a Ducati Monster 1100 for a 696 part.

Step 1:

Remove the box that holds the toolkit that sits underneath the seat. 

Step 2: 

Disconnect and remove the servo cable and servo. There is a washer that needs to be removed underneath the rubber dust cover. The washer can be seen on the lefthand side of this picture:

Step 3:
Remove the (slip-on) mufflers.

Step 4:
Loosen top bracket by removing the 4 hex bolts on the left- and righthand side of the subframe. Also remove the center hex bolt which connect the gas tank to the bracket.

Step 5:

Undo the hex bolts located underneath the gas tank.  These connect the subframe bracket to the bracket on the exhaust. They were the only bolts which were a little fitly to get to. I used the grip of a screwdriver to force the tank some 3-4 centimeters off the bracket.

Step 6:

Loosen up the exhaust clamps situated to the right of the servo and behind the rear set. There is also a hex bolt hidden away behind the rear set that needs to be removed. I've also unfastened the header (cylinder side) of the vertical cylinder.

Step 7:

You should be able to remove the midsection of the exhaust and end up with this:

Step 8:

Placing the 696 midsection should be reverse of removing the 1100 midsection. I've test fitted the exhaust with mufflers without fastening all bolts. My Arrow slip-ons have a tendency to line up wonky when installed with all bolts already fastened.

Step 9:

I've sourced a Duc.ee to eliminate the error message on the dash. It can be held into place by the tie-rips that come with the Duc.ee.

Step 10:

You should end up with something like this
