hi guys, Im far from an oxy and in a country where postage frequently goes missing so Im doing a budget mod on a set of standard mufflers...

first up I drilled out the rivets and removed the end caps then chopped out the angled pipe, leaving a 10mm ring to keep the perforated baffle intact...



this gave it a better sound but I still felt it was restricted after a few days riding, so I continued chopping...

i then removed the next plate (with 2 pipes connected) leaving the pipe that ran through to the next plate...



then i removed the last plate and punched a few holes through the cat.
the cat was really hard to remove as it was quite thick, so I just left it there.





Ive mixed the shots up a little but Im sure you guys can see where Im coming from. The large volume of air swirling around in there is sure to cause some popping and maybe some flames at night but we will see.

later ill smash the cat apart to get it out and fit a 2 or 3" thick perforated baffle to it and wrap it in fibreglass, ill slide it down the throat and weld a large washer shaped plate to the baffle then popweld it to the 10mm ring ive left there at end of the can.

I hope Ive explained this process right. Ill take more pics as i go and post them.
I'll test ride the bike soon to see if its made any improvements. I guess I wont feel anything until i open the airbox up a little and mod the filter...


next Ill mod the airbox and later fit a pair of pro-circuit T4 cans to it...
I wouldnt recoment this mod to everyone but Im in a country with no emission or noise restrictions... and loud pipes saves lives here!
