    drone remedy??

    I put a set of pipes on my 2013 f6b,but the drone was terribble and frankly made my daily commute hard to bear..
    what i gather is the drone is caused by the crossover pipe..
    so being we have an unlimited mileage warranty i dont want to start welding and cutting but i started thinking that maybe if the crossover is removed and the gasket removed then we can slip a drilled freeze plug and put the gasket back on and re install it like normal
    so i guess my question starts at does anyone know he size of the hole and does this appear to simple a fix??
    im going to try to dissamemble mine sunday,but was hoping some one might know what diameter it is..
    i know some members have done a similar deal with freeze plugs, but if it slips behind the gasket it might be enough to still equalize and kill the drone
    if it works it might be a way to enjoy our pipes again..
    thoughts??

    If I can't fix it, I will fix it so no one can fix it.

    i read you did a ton of mods to do yours..
    thats a 1 5/8 freeze plug...or 1.618
    after all the mods you did are you happy with the result?
    is it worth it or better to stay with the stock set up??
    does this sound like its a viable option??
