Not trying to bust ***** but you have a (basically) brand new bike but yet you claim youre broke. Can you define "broke". If you buy pipes your kids wont eat or you just dont have enough cash stashed that your old lady will know you spent her manicure money on bike parts? Heres two examples of broke...i work with both of these guys. Guy #1 has 3 kids, a .monster mortgage payment, truck payment, a 2016 Honda rebel that he pays 100 bucks a month for that ive seen twice at work and a non contributing wife...his definition of broke is when his checking account is in the red two days before payday. Guy #2 has 2 out of the house grown kids, a mortgage thats a third of guy #1, a small truck payment, a paid for street glide, a working contrubuting wife...his definition of broke is when his checking account falls under 20k. So you see "broke" has a varied meaning depending on your outlook. Im broke when i cant buy the bike part i want lol. Oh yeah and just ride the bike as is till you csn do it up right.

Something I did back in the day to my old Honda was shove a piece of rebar up the exhaust pipe and punch a hole in the baffle. Made it a little louder and you guys widen out that whole to adjust volume.

Makes perfect sense. Let's take a piece of rebar and shove it up the exhaust of a $20K+ motorcycle, so that it will be a little bit louder, and do exactly squat for performance. Are you frigging kidding me? Sounds like something a 16 year old would do.

Here's a suggestion...how about saving a little money each month, and putting it away for your motorcycle improvement fund, so that some day you can buy an exhaust system (or stage 1 setup) that actually improves the performance of your bike, without damaging the stock exhaust system? Just throwing out random ideas here...
