runnung with no mufflers....just headers???....video

Is it ok to run with the four headers on a cb500? Is it the same as running a straight pipe?? Is it bad for the bike

Prob have to rejet your carbs as the back pressure is going to be completely different, and it can't be very good for noise and emmisions, but I can't imagine it breaking anything. But someone else has more experiance with this then I do I'm sure.

My bike has a similar setup, the guy before me cut the pipes towards the end and welded some 3" exhaust tubing over 2 header pips on each side. Sounds UGLY.
