Shortening chinese cans

I purchased a Chinese slip-on muffler from ebay and fitted it to the bike. It looked nice but i thought a shorty can would suit the tyga tail better. So of to work the muffler went and i measured and marked ready to cut.
 some tools i used to shorten the muffler, there was an air saw in there somewhere too which i used to cut through the outer shell, inner silencer and glass mat. So first we start by drilling the rivets of the end can out.

 above you can see the pieces that were removed, easily done with an air saw or hack saw.

bye bye excess can cans!

thats what the shorty looks like on the bike, she is a bit too loud for my liking so later im thinking of maybe repacking more glass mat inside and maybe another silencer to go in the end pipe to quieten her down a little.
