Default Exhaustless?

I'm tired of my stock exhaust sounding quiet, yet don't have the money to buy a slip on. My friend has an 05 cbr 1000rr and he took of his exhaust and it sounds mean. I thought about doing that but i have an 02 sensor on the exhaust pipe so i would have unplug the 02 sensor to go exhaustless. Any done it? any suggestion?

I'd say you shoudn't take this advice from your friend. :\ Do some searches on this subject & I think you'll find more than enough evidence to support this viewpoint. Leave your exhaust on there until you can afford an aftermarket pipe. There are used pipes all over the place...even at motorcycle salvage yards, where they are considerably cheaper if you don't mind a small ding, scrape, or whatever.

Good luck.

It's a terrible idea.

Besides running the risk of burning/melting stuff, it's not tuned for it, and the bike will not run as well as it should.

Save up some money and do it the right way, or don't do it at all.

Some people think that a louder bike is a safer bike. People notice you more if they can hear you coming and going. I just think a slip on can sound better. I liked my stock exhaust but my slip on sounds much better.

BTW jnmacd, my stock exhaust can is for sale!
