So i'm a bit confused on what I should do next. I was riding on the highway when i heard my bike get extremely loud, at first i was like wow it must be the surrounding walls making it sound louder but when i got off, the loud noise was still there, and I look down and my 24" muffler is gone and whats left is a my header section. Now i rode about a couple blocks and actually found it and put it back on. The sound was a bit different, don't really like how it sounded but by the end of night. It became extremely loud, the engine was a bit smoking, very very hot, I can feel it and a shot load of backfire. Now i don't know what to do next? Re jet? Change exhaust? The muffler got a bit damaged and here are some pictures of it, help me out!

I'd change the muffler and keep it clamped a bit tighter next time.

Yeah i just bought it so I didn't even do it my self, but i re-tighten it, loctite it, and locked that bitch. Do you think that the muffler is the problem? If i change it, it'd go back to normal? I was thinking of getting a shorty one anyways.
 
Well... assuming your photo is the pic of the muffler looking into it from the back, your baffles are missing, so yeah, the muffler is "gone" and all you have is a section of pipe.

Yeah i was thinking that but didn't really know what to look for in terms of how the baffle looks. So if i get a new muffler piece, replace it, will i need to re-jet?
