    I say do it! Just make sure you rejet, or it will foul plugs and not have any power. I had a straight through pipe on my 110, and it sounded pretty cool (as long as your the one riding it ). Don't expect it to have a deep rumbling tone though. It will be more high pitched.

    Dual exhaust on a single cylinder motor? I say do it if you really want to but it won't help the performance any and it will be very odd. Also opening up you exhaust won't foul your plug. It will make you run lean so you will have to fatten it up a little.

    because from every other angle except the back, you will see a phony tip on there that looks kinda silly. On a truck, thats alright because the rest of the exhaust system is hidden under the vehicle.
    The below sentence is TRUE.

    I saw a guy who was travelling the world on a single cylinder honda motorcycle, he had a fake dual exhaust rigged on his bike (no exhaust running through the one pipe) the pipe looked real, but its real use was for in rough countries so he could store his valuables in the extra pipe so they wouldnt get stolen! That is one hell of an idea, and he had some system to stop the stuff from falling out of the pipe.
