    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hey,

Hope someone could help me out - I'm pondering how to get a tiny little more sound out of my stock pipes (I quite like the 4-2 pipes, not a fan of 4-1 looks). Wonder if I could achieve anything by fiddling around with baffles, or would that be too much?? Not sure if baffles can be somewhat altered inside the pipe, or just totally removed.. I would not want the exhaust too loud.
I heard of some guys drilling a small diameter hole in the bottom side of exhaust - would it be placed in a header or the muffler part?
Any info appreciated.

Thanks.
 
Don't do it. Had a bike where the idiot owner drilled into the baffles and it sounded like poo.
 
Yes the PO of my gs1000G drilled 4 -1/2 boles in the mufflers on the bike and I hate the sound of it . Sounds like what Ed say's "poo" and It was enough that I had to re jet also to make the bike run properly.Don't do it you will be sorry in the end. Want more sound change both mufflers, some guys are using Harley take offs. They can be had cheaply
 
Thanks for advice. I didn't consider changing mufflers only - but you're right - there are used harley's ones out there for quite cheap. I'll give that a shot.
Cheers

I'll sell you a pair, just took them off my 650.
 
tkent02 - I found some locally for about $50, hardly used - few styles to choose from. I think shipping alone from your place to mine would match that price. Thanks anyway.
