Well, if you havent guessed by my throttle lock mod post, I have to do things on a...let's say "limited budget." That being said, I finally made my exhaust sound a little better, an I didnt need to buy anything. I used a 1/2" drill bit and drilled 3 holes into the baffles on each muffler. I must say, it sounds great. I wasnt looking for a v-twin sound, I am a proud parallel twin owner. I just wanted a unique sound that says "here comes Mike", and I have to say that the bike now makes a nice rumble. After reading Romad's posts on his website, I was very hesitant, because I too, like to put things back to stock if needed. But on this one, I said screw it. I am very happy with it. I will post pics if requested. I also have big plans for my 500 as well. I will definitely post pics of all of the mods after I am finished.

I will gladly trade you a pair of Harley Dyna mufflers for your nice quiet stock ones before you ruin them :) I even have a pair of ruined stock mufflers you can have for free.

I'm in man if you want to send me your address man we can trade I'm in Arizona. I can probably ship them right after thanksgiving weekend if you want man! Oh and I'll send you some pics of the front end now that it's redone in response to our fork posts! I have also added 5" risers with 3 1/2" kick back and 1" drag bars with 4 1/2" kickback! I had to bore the triple clamps to accommodate the risers and drilled into the bars to mount the switch housings but I think you'll like it! It's got a mean stance now and a bad ass riding position better than the stock U bars! Let me know buddy!!!
