i have seen people remove them with no immediate problems but you are
taking away the back pressure which is needed to run right good luck
safe riding

I was looking at doing that as well.&nbsp\\; I did it on my last bike but that was a Yamaha.&nbsp\\; If anyone has done it please let us know how it went and what you did.&nbsp\\;

I would rather do this than buy new pipes!

As noted&nbsp\\; earlier you need some back pressure.&nbsp\\; Don't knock them clean through.&nbsp\\; You need to leave at least one to maintain the back pressure on the engine.&nbsp\\; If you bust em all out, you'll suffer with performance, but you'll make a lot of noise.&nbsp\\; You need the pick up to dodge&nbsp\\;your caged&nbsp\\;enemy.

Anyone have realworld experience with the Max Performance level 2 mufflers from bobvic2 on Ebay?&nbsp\\; Does/will the motor run even hotter than stock with them?
