I've read all threads about the subject but nobody actually commented about how it sounded after(maybe one member...). I'm thinking about doing it since i can't afford new pipes.Few smaller holes or one bigger one? I just want it to be a little louder.Anybody who have done it already?

YouTube - 2005 fz6 stock exhaust drilled.

I'm fairly sure I posted this before, not the best sound clip, but should give you some idea...

Kinda sounds like a pissed off chainsaw in a way...

I did it before I got my new exhaust and drilled in each hole. I used a 1/2 inch masonry bit for mine. After i was done, the bit was destroyed, literally.

Make sure you use a masonry bit, unless someone suggests something different that works better, because it's hard metal in there. Good luck and when I did it, it sounded just like the vid above.

+1 A pissed off chainsaw is right on the nose!
