Hey guys, brand new tot he forum, long time FZ6 rider. I just started tinkering with my bike and thats just how I learn! Recently I punched out my cat converter to make my bike louder, but its still too quiet for me. I really want to de-baffle the bike after I heard what it sounds like. Can anyone give me some specific step by step procedures or point me in the direction of a link that will give me some help?

I might still do the completely gutted stock exhaust, but in the mean time I've done the drill down the 2 exhaust outlets".

300mm drill bit 22mm diameter. I'd recommend taking it off the bike to do this.

It doesn't really make it louder, just a bit deeper / gurgly. less like a sewing machine.

another option is to gut it and weld in some pipes

Use short sentences.
Start with the simple ideas and work your way up to the advanced concepts.
Examples, diagrams, photographs and demonstrations will help.

I can give you more specifics if you tell me what your FZ6 is confused about.
