i'ma dick, yes, and I have modified the '08 spud, to make it lighter, smaller, more robust in sound, and completely within epa std's. as stamped on the housing.. took 6" out of the frontal area, after grinding the weld off the back half under the aluminum cover, a and pulling the "guts out".. then chopped off the forward 6" including the block off plate, and trimming the associated rear, to profile, an welding all back together.. nice sound, not obnoxious, perfect in every way.. free... hear that NO MONey$$$$$. and very happy.. toss a bunch of money out, to buy an exhaust, that as sold was never ever tuned specifically for the ZG1400.. only sold as "will work don't be a sheep,and buy an an exhaust, neverr designed specifically for your bike do whatever you want, but be wise. and understand the differences between all the bike, and performance features associated you guys want to know how to mod the spud.. let me know.. I have a welder, and everything to mod it..
