Exhaust Question?
I'm looking to do the Buell type exhaust modification and was wondering if anyone has done the same. I'm worried that if I cut down the canister will this have a negative effect on performance. Thanks in advance.

Not optimal for performance, apparently. I don't know this guy or anything about him. I had just seen this years ago and thought I'd pass it on.

Buell style exhaust on the Hawk
I took a Vance + Hines SST repackable, chopped, and added some baffles. It did not improve performance, but it did not seem to slow it down either...
It is flippin LOUD! It improved the look of the bike, and eliminated the shortened passenger footpeg used for the left-side high pipe I had.
I can take pictures If you are truly interested.

Hey thanks everyone for the help. Hord I was wondering if I bought the M4 aluminum exhaust from you would you consider doing the mod for a little extra. You can reach me at raul.sauceda@yokota.af.mil if you want to discuss particulars. I've also tried to order from your site but couldn't get a price quote to an APO (armed forces postal office). Thanks again for all you help!
