What I did was take a 1 inch pointed sharp bar and punched a hole in the rear baffle plate of the muffler while still on the bike. (Very Easy) This made the exhaust tone deeper but not louder. It will also let the engine breath easier and run cooler without changing the mapping or parameters of the ECU. If you want the tone to be deeper punch a larger hole in the rear plate or if you want it louder punch a hole in the baffle plate ahead of the rear one but there's no turning back once the front plate is altered. In doing this small easy mod this has saved me the price of an aftermarket silencer but this may not be for everyone. Some people may still want to change the looks of their silencer with another. Any how, I hope this will help someone with their decisions of exhaust tones. In my opinion if you are not happy with the change of the sound on the stock exhaust you are not out any money because you will buy an aftermarket anyway.
