They arent super quiet, just dont have the low end rumble i like, Chuck and Billys stock pipes cut down sound awesome to me.

i dont want to cut down a good set of arrow pipes, figured i would just sell them.

Hey brother, you go ahead and bring those arrows on over and we'll chop em down. you'll be happy you did!

I've chopped up several 'good' cans in the past and it's no sweat! Piece o' cake!

You think they're perfectly good Arrows now, you just wait til you hack a few inches off of em!

lemme know when you're ready

yeah but look at the link in my last post, look at the end cap on those, its seems too restrictive and small.....

[morganf]

Hack em off right where that front rivit on the Arrow badge is and they will be PLENTY loud and unrestricted

if you do that what do you use for a cap on the end?

Ive looked around on Ebay, seems a new set of the pipes i have now on Ebay run around $850 for a pair of slip ons....

why so much money? I dont know much about mufflers... Would it be stupid to take these off, sell them, buy some cheap stock ones and cut them down?

Would the bike then run like shit?

Any advice anyone? Morgan temps me with his idea, but if i could sell these even for $300 and get the stock ones and cut the stock ones down the money sure could get me some more MC stuff. I could care less if it has a brand name on the side of the pipes i would care though if the bike ran like shit once i was done.

on the off chance that the pipes were the same size

I'd cut down the arrows and then use the end caps off a stock set of monster (remus) pipes

Quiet pipes have their advantages....

[duc_fan]

Chopped stock pipes won't flow as well as a set of properly designed aftermarket pipes (like your Arrows).

For those suggesting "chopping the Arrows"... the problem is not the length.  The problem is the pipe diameter, specifically the outlet diameter.

If you wanted to do it right without paying for new pipes... remove endcaps from Arrows, cut out the tailpipe, make the hole larger, and weld in a new tailpipe.  If the perf'd core of the mufflers is the same size as that skinny outlet, disassemble the rest of the cans, remove said core, install larger perf'd core, and repack the mufflers.  You do NOT want drastic changes in pipe diameter between the headpipe and the rearmost outlet.  Radical changes in pipe diameter lead to ugly flow properties (i.e. drag... or backpressure).

It's a helluva lot of work, but that's how to do it correctly without paying for new cans.

Or... you can do it the cheap and easy way by just hacking it all to bits.

According to MotoCorsa and other sources when I did mine you can either open your airbox or "aftermarket" cans and not need to get your bike gassed or get a PCIII.  If you do BOTH then the changes are drastic enough where the stock ECU can't make the adjustments.

EDR actually told me my pipes have great flow - perhaps too much.  But that's also likely because I have the pods vs he airbox mounted on it.  There's lots of sucking air up front and she loose in the back so . . . The PCIII is earning it's keep.

My suggestion for chopping the Arrows was simply a low buck solution to get more noise out of the bike using existing parts. Not to optimize performance or get the best flow.
