Ok Stickshift,
Say I change my mind and did decide to cut it, can this be done with the exhaust on the bike or does it need to be
removed for this? Also where exactly does it get cut and is it just a simple cut and bolt on a new can or... ?
How to make my stock exhaust slip-on?

Re: How to make my stock exhaust slip-on?
I've only ever used slip on cans on my nc30's.
If you get a slip on it's simple to just hacksaw through the standard system (while still on the bike) at the right place. You'll need the new can with you to see where this is. Make sure you get a can with the right inlet diameter (e.g. slips over the standard system!).
Other option is to buy a 3 bolt flange and weld it on where you cut the system. Not much difference to above, but 3 bolt cans (e.g. rvf, cbr250rr) are very cheap for decent chinese ebay jobs. The 3bolt flange adapters are availble form overseas sellers and aren't very pricey.
Give the guys at RB's a call, and discuss your options with them, they've always been very helpful to me.

Another place worthy of a call for a 2nd hand muffler is Sumoto in Melbourne. They import hundreds of rvf's and break heaps of them, they always have aftermarket parts available. Bear in mind though you'll need a 3 bolt flange for any of these mufflers.
I usually have quite a few spare cans kicking about, but none at the moment sorry.
Stick a can on and you'll be amazed at the sound these bikes make!!

And Changing the exhaust on the 30/35 isn't too difficult :)
