Chopping Arrow S2R cans

I've seen the write-ups for chopping the OEM and Termi cans.  Are these the same for the Arrow cans?  Can I chop from the tailpipe end rather than the exhaust-entry end?  If so, could someone post a link for an informative an thorough writeup?  Thanks.

I'd imagine that chopping any aftermarket can will be about the same.

i'd do the arrows from the tail end, since that won't change the mounting point

You know, the more I look at the Arrow setup, I think it may look weird with the cans chopped since the top one will be so much further forward.  Here is a pic post custom pod filter install tonight.

Let me know what you guys think.  That bottom can looks way further back in the pic than it really is.  On another note, pod filters sound so badass.  Bike will get re-tuned for these Monday.  I'm interested to see the differences.

yeah, the shotguns already do look kind of the right length as is.

the dual high mounts look too long if you chop the tail

Yeah...think I'm gonna leave the cans alone.  The pods were researched heavily by me and as far as I know haven't been used previously.  One hint is that they have more surface area than you would normally think.  In any case, like I said, I'm psyched to get this thing tuned.  I really want to ride tomorrow but will be really annoyed to not be able to open the throttle.  Oh well.
