Default Loud exhaust?

What the loudest pipe? My last bike was an R6 with a D&D it had a deep tone but was incredibly loud. My F3 has a D&D also, but its very quiet. I cant hear my bike over my frineds riding with them. I was going to take the paking out if it exists but the muffler doesnt come apart. I like cars to hear me since i do alot of night riding. What do you think? loudest slip on?

at the end of your pipe, do you see rivets holding the cap and pipe exit on??? if so, you can drill those rivets out with a drill bit, and the cap slides off, exposing the inside.

ya i know it makes no sense my last D&D pipe was crazy loud.

Yes there are rivets, if i drill those out how will I seal it up again? and do you think its worth it? do you think there's even packing in there to rip out?

I know most exhaust come with an internal "silencer", so, by popping the rivets, if there is one in place, you can remove that. To seal the exhaust back up, I would recommend using a pop rivet tool. I got mine at Harbor Freight Tools for about 12 bucks, and got a 100 pack of rivets for like, um.....I wanna say about 10 bucks or so. You can reseal the exhaust by doing that.

I agree with the D&d being insanely loud. Mine gives me a headache after riding for a bit because its so damn loud. Im going to buy a new one soon maybe a micron or M4 because they arent as loud.
