I did it-- thanks to you guys!!
As one who is mechanically inept I am proud to report a successful mufflerectomy. After reading all the posts about how thrilled everyone was with the removal of the silencers, with fear and trepidation I decided to go for it. With BD's list of needed supplies I made the trip to Lowes and then fired up my 29 dollar drill. Everything worked just like it was supposed to except for what seemed an awful lot of tugging pulling and twisting to actually get it out. Love the result. Love the sound. I am amazed at how helpful everyone is on these sites. Thanks everyone and especially BD. Maybe next I'll actually tackle an oil change. :)

BD got the idea to look into it after I made mention months before about drilling holes around the pipe you drilled out like alot of people did with the last bike I had. He probably won't admit it though. Plant a seed and it grows.

It'll be like a treasure hunt, because the dealer never cleans these, and you can't imagine what people have found trapped in those screens. |

I've thought about performing a bafflectomy, but I didn't like the way my C50T sounded debaffled, I bought it that way and a little later bought a set of stock take-offs from eBay. I've never heard a 1600 Nomad debaffled, though.
