Any harm to cutting the exhaust pipe shorter?

[texanstraders]

Got a new 5303. The exhaust pipe sticks up a little too high to get in my shop. Any harm to cutting it off about 10 inches ? I would actually just take the stock one off and have a new one made at the muffler shop. I'd rather have the new gal locked up in the shop as apposed to being parked under my loafing shed. Thanks...

only thing I can see wrong is if it's cut too short the smoke may come back straight in your face.

My nieghbor has a 5103 and a very short door into his old barn. He keeps the bolt on the bottom where it connects loose and slips it on and off. I thought it would leak and sound bad, but it does not. His door is so short that he had to remove the ROPS and has to duck when he drives in....
