bizzare hole in exhaust

[danclarkie]

hi, after redex-ing my bike today i noticed smoke was comming from my exhaust in the usual place but alos a small hole on the underside of the exhaust, closer inspection revealed a perfectly circular small hole in the bottom of the end can im quite certain its been drilled and im assuming factory done as its only had one previous owner. what is this and why?? and should i seal it with exhaust assembly paste or leave it? The bike is a 4 Stroke yamaha TW125

Drain holeage.

So the waterage can drainage out the exhautage.

Nothing to worry about.

Drill some more holes, It'll go faster.

Its defenately a drain hole, filling it will let water sit in there and you really dont want that happening...

Is it at the end cans lowest point btw?
