I have a 06 CBR1000RR and I am dying to buy a slip on. But my wife is being cheap and says I can’t get anything for my biketill next year. I was bored out of my mind one day and I ended up checking out videos on you tube. I came across this video.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkGvVpfieRAIt’s of a guy drilling out the baffle plate in the back of his stock exhaust. So my question is this. Is this a bad idea to do this? I don’t care about my stock exhaust as I’m just going to rip it off anyway. But I do not want to hurt my bike in any way. By doing this would it hurt my engine? If anyone that knows what they are doing can shed some light on this, I would greatly appreciate it.

 

it wont hurt anything
make it a little louder thats about it

i posted a before and after hp reading of punching the pipe a few months ago and it shows a very slight gain

 

SAVE SOME MONEY AND BUY THE REAL DEAL [:-]

 

Thanks for your reply. Im just looking for some better sound till I can buy a new exhaust. Im going to do it tomorow after work. Thanks for helping me.

 

Yea my friend did that and it is alot easier than other bikes i.e. yamaha but what the heck youre gonna get a new exhaust anyway. I think he got the idea from the same youtube post.
