stock pipe is a bit tricky cause u cant rivet it u have to weld it(f4i and 929 not sure about others). With stock ones u have to cut the side closer to the midpipe, on my f4i i cut the portion that the bracket was welded to and it worked mint, except for the ****ty weldingjob i did.

I wouldn't suggest it. I will look like crap and sound like crap. Leave it stock until you can afford a real pipe.

i had mine cut for $50...sounds better. and half the weight of that **** is gone...stock pipes are HEAVY!

id give it to someone that has a bike shop and that has done it before....not to just some welder.
