If you aint done this, do it!

Just gutted my '05 stock cans as per the "How to" on the R1-Forum site. The sound is fantastic and there is a noticable improvement in performance in both midrange and top end. I got my perforated sheet for the tubing from B&Q of all places for £7.25 each. I've retained the looks of the stock cans but turned them into race cans. Go get your drills out.
