Can you do that shorten the stock muffler on one of the older gs 500 as well such as a 2001 model ?

Exhaust is the same for all years, so it should work the same.

Even if it's only to appreciate that you don't let the noise loose the rest of the time.... No max level means no comparison and 'huh least he isn't revving it like that other time!'

So you just used a cutting wheel or die grinder to cut it off then welded it back together?

Also did you have to rejet the carbs?

i think it does not needs rejeting. after cutting muffler i feel more power and acceleration sadly in Georgia we do't have dyno.
i even dont know what size of jets i'm useing. its stock i think

I know its probably very self explanatory but would you happen to have made a tutorial for us gs ers that are newbies?

The first 6-5" of the stock muffler - aka the part closest to the head is a straight can.
If you had put in a few min of work and thought, You'd have a proper fiberglass stuffed baffle fitted can.
What you needed to have done is to put a perforated metal steet rolled into a tube - easy effectively HD issue crap, rolled over a steel pipe/bar and tached or tied with wire ... and put that in the snout and weld it to that, then stuff fiber glass around it and slide it on and weld it on, or you may have to bolt it on ... so you can replace the fiberglass ... like who ever does that ...

Anyway good work, you should've put pics with it cut ... So my method will have a nice put this here and weld it there and what not.

Cool.
Buddha.
