I've bought the Revolution version for my ADV. Anyone got advice on how to remove the baffle (for lagitimate reasons of course). I've been told to remove the screw, but I can't find a screw at least not one that a screwdriver would fit.

It may be a rivet that needs to be drilled out, to be replaced with a bolt if you ever put the baffle back.

Would that be the small one at the exit of the pipe??
Welcome to the site, maybe a brief intro in the Newbie section might have been a better first post.
Never the less, stand at the rear of the bike looking at the tail piece, now look underneath the pipe that exits the main silencer.
You will see a M5 domed Allen screw, just undo that and simply pull the insert out with a pair of pliers, its that complicated.
But whatever you do, please dont ask what oil it takes.....
Dam, forgot that it might still have the rivet fitted, sorry!
In which case just drill the rivet out, maybe remove the can first though, save the ""spent" rivet end dropping inside the can.
Not that I have ever done that of course.

I'll give that a go ta.
Sorry this was my first post I'm just impatient.
I have posted a short intro since.
Maybe I can think of more amazing and intreging things to add to it, but I'm not in that place at the moment!!

S'cuse my ignorance, but does it just require a common or garden drill with a metal bit?
Mr Wapping's advice to me:
"Using a normal hand drill, work up from 3mm to 4.5mm then use a pair of long nosed mole grips to pull the baffle out."
Your can should have arrived with a replacement nut and bolt affair (mine didn't) for when you need to re-fit the baffle.

If you gently warm the exhaust the baffle comes out a lot easier least it does on mine
