first time servicing my gsx250f. got the oil filter cover off, but the oil filter is stuck between the extractors and the body of the bike (on the right hand side). how do i get this out?
extractors: the pipes that carry the exhaust to the muffler. "exhaust headers" or simply "exhaust" maybe?
body of the bike being the actual right hand side frame.
 
Not sure on your bike, but some bikes require that the exhaust be loosened so it can be moved out of the way for oil filter replacement.
Yamaha XVS1100
Kawasaki 250 Ninja
Move the exhaust, or purchase a service manual and read the manufacturer's recommended instructions.

Buy the service manual, it will save you hundreds and show you detailed photos and give you written instructions on every procedure you will ever need do to this bike.

What are you calling an "extractor" and which body part of the bike? I have to my knowledge never changed the oil and filter on this machine but generally speaking if the filter can't come out due to something in the way, that something moves, somehow-unbolts, gets loosened, removed etc.
