    I posted previously asking about low cost exhaust mods, i got some feedback on it and one of the suggestions was drilling 5-6 holes in the endcaps to make it a little louder.

    Who on here has done this? if you have can you post some pictures so that I can learn from what you have done?

    I'm not worried about not liking the sound because if it comes down to that i'll replace them. (they are not looking to pretty anyway)

    I'm not posting to get feedback on how loud bikes don't save lives and all that. I like them a little louder than they are right now but don't want to spend any money on slip-ons yet.

    Thanks guys, appreciate any feedback given.

    I removed the end caps on my exhaust and the sound is awsome.

    I did the exhaust mod last spring and didn't notice any change in performance. This past spring i did pods and jets and it totally changed my bikes power and sound for the better.
