For cutting through exhaust pipe I have a cutter that is basically plier handles with a chain on one handle and a hooked fork on the other handle. The chain has small steel cutting discs between each link of the chain. You wrap the chain around the pipe, hook on the forked end of the cutter handle to the chain, squeeze the handles and rotate the chain around the pipe. The discs cut into the pipe and in about four or five back forth movements, the discs cut right through. It makes nice clean and straight cuts. It's saved my rear many times when cutting pipe or round crap in tight places.

I know it's tempting to spend $35 for a piece of exhuast pipe, but nothing can beat a full exhaust system and an ecu tune.

Your opinion. Not a fact. The aftermarket headers don't make the bike any better. Check out the forums. It'll help explain what I'm talking about. The factory headers are high quality and thicker than aftermarket. As far as flow, it's the same. There's very little restrictions on factory headers. A tune? Yes that would help performance. As far your comment about just noise, you're incorrect. Removing the bread basket like we did here, helped the bike breathe better. It's not just about sound. Like I said, check the forums.

@@dorian_vlogs Helping the bike "breathe better" doesn't do much for performance without a tune. If anything it will run leaner than it already does stock. I never said the oem headers were bad. They are very high quality for a bike at this price point. They are "thicker" because they are double walled. Kawasaki did this for heat dissipation. Basically to keep the engine heat away from the rider. The actual thickness of the header pipe is very similar to aftermarket headers. If you removed the catalytic converter and then didn't tune it what was the purpose other than to make it louder?

Awesome. Keep us updated. Any gain is good. 🤙

Why wouldn't you have taken off the headers in the first place? The whole time I'm watching up to the point you said it yourself I was scratching my head lol. This isn't a very difficult job if planned out a little more. Not removing the headers is probably the one thing that made you say at the end for people not to try this at home. I'll be doing this to my 2022 soon and I'll time myself... and make the video on it. :D Sounds great

Yeah, I took mine off, made it a lot easier... And to be honest, the bike needs new headers to get significant power gains. We picked up a paltry 2hp from the decat, ECU flash and custom tune... Headers give easily 8-10 HP with a tune. The decat just drops weight and sounds amazing.

@@dorian_vlogs Yeah, it sounds brilliant and drops weight, so its worth it. But the double walled headers are very narrow and kill top end power. We smoothed it out on the dyno, but 103hp was all it had in it, and that included a high flow filter and Ivan's airbox mod. The motor really stops pulling in higher gears when you get up in the revs... I had it out on track and hit a wall in 6th where it just stopped pulling.

@@SquireSCA good info. Good to know. I have a couple if other bikes so for me personally the power band is perfect. For track use and to reach its full potential it definitely needs more power and different gearing.

I would never do this to my Z900RS. Never, in a million years. Destroys much of the awesome character of the machine for no gain. Not only no gain, but for a giant negative loss. The riding experience after removing the bread box is so much worse than stock. But, whatever floats your boat. This couldn't possibly be justified in any way.
