How odd does a de-baffled stock muffler sound?

Well I've got bigger problems to solve now.  The petcock (filter unit) started leaking today.  After I get that fixed I'll see if I can get something on youtube.

The worst part is all the super loud popping and crackling that happens when I'm downshifting and engine breaking (it's funny because I liked that sound when I first got the bike).  The best part is twisting it up.  She sings a purty song from 6000 to 11000 rpm.

I found this GS500 w/ V&H video on youtube.  It sounds almost exactly like this except with annoying crackling and popping when down-shifting.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joTdG0iO-PQ

I also found this...a video of GS500 with drilled baffles.  Mine seems much louder because the baffles aren't drilled, their gone.  It's kind of a cross between this and the V&H.

Thank you Jay Wolf and galahs for the input and sound clips.

You know Dave, that Jardine system may be the answer to our problem.  It doesn't sound too much louder than stock in the clip posted by galahs. But it does sound deeper and should offer some performance gain.
