its a bit of a job - I shortened a Yoshi RS3 slip-on a while ago.....I remember lots of bashing with a hammer and a lump of wood to remove the guts from the outer skin..... :lol: and then having to reattach the whole inner section to the end cap when rivetting the insides together...

Hoffy recently did a similiar job on my old RS3 Yoshi bolt-on, he might have some more info on this mod. Its definitely worth doing, just for the *noise* factor..... :twisted:
