Already chopped off... I'm going to make a little fiberglass tail section... very small and subtle... I mocked something up quick with some cardboard, but apparently I didn't take pictures like I thought I did... looked like shit anyway, but it gave me some ideas...

Nice, it can accentuate the exhaust that way, cans wont be burried among the rear of the bike otherwise

Cans won't be a part of the bike... slashcutting the exhaust right at the flanges...

Are you missing my pictures?

Loud doesn't even begin to describe it.
I ran my TLR briefly with the cans off when I was going from stock exhaust to the M4's and woke up everyone in the apartment building surrounding the garage where we were doing the work.


...yeah, it was like 1am.... what of it?

Yeah, I've scoped out a couple of guys who have stock pipes to sell me if I hate it... going to baffle it with an 8" wrapped insert... hopefully it's manageable... Honestly, I can't imagine it would be THAT much worse than with the Yosh's on there...
