Default Can a Motorcycle muffler work?...ideas/suggestions?

Kinda silly question, but some of the larger 900cc and 1100cc cans are just as big as my 5zigen fireball, and i woulnt mind the f1 type sound...any ideas?

No flames please, this was just a random theory

As long as it's the same diameter as your exhaust I don't see why it wouldn't work.
But I doubt it's the same diameter, since motorcycle engines are a lot smaller.

yeah well fact of the matter is, a 1.6L or 1.8L engine will NEVER sound like a 600cc-1100cc engine that revs as high as 15K rpm.
