Your stock KZ650 will not only sound better with baffles it will run better. You need an appropriate level of backpressure for the engine to develop full power at low to medium rpm. Ed

Do you know what exhaust system is on the bike? If not, maybe someone can identify if you can post a couple pictures. Ed

The Delkevic 4-1 pipe sounds great, performs well and is stainless steel. And it quite affordable as far as pipes go. R

It's hard to see what you're dealing with from the tiny pics, but you might be able to plug the holes. or maybe weld on an end plate. ??? I was able to cut a couple of threads & install brass plugs from the hardware store. I think I used a high temp thread locker to keep them from vibrating loose.
