06 Fxst exhaust gaskets

Bought screamin' eagle exhaust gaskets and now I'm feeling kinda stupid. How do these go on? They aren't big enough to slip over the exhaust pipe and seat in the mounting bracket. Also, do I need to get rid of the piece of metal that is on the pipe that sat in the mounting bracket? Thanks guys!

I've been testing a series of new tuning parts for a few years and have reached the final stages. Now I'm looking for some people to beta test some items and get rewarded for your time and trouble.

Testers must have a fairly stock to mildly modified late model carbureted Evo, Twin Cam, or Sportster built between 1996 to 2006. Carburetor should be stock and unmodified (rejetted is ok).

I'm looking for someone who owns a late 80's evo motorcycle that's still running the stock Keihin butterfly carburetor. I have a tuning part that I need tested to see if it will work correctly on a running bike. The part will be provided for free in exchange for some feedback.

Bike and owner should be in the US and a frequent user of this board. Please contact me and I'll explain more.
