Not sure...

So I'm headed back home from meeting drewp and signing papers for a new Apt :yay: I'm sitting between 75-80mph, and yes the bike goes that fast

And all of a sudden i start hearing a really loud rattle/buzz sound. Thank god I'm at my work exit (which is aprox 7 miles from my apt.) So I pull over and I can still hear it with the bike in idle I give it gas and it sounds like a damn harley.

So I bend down to look at the exhaust and such and notice this dangling from the pipe...

Umm that's not supposed to be there... So I follow it the pipe up and sure enough the one bolt broke and the other just rattled itself loose.

So I limped the 7 miles home (seriously sounding like a harley).

And now my question is how easy is that going to be to fix or should I just replace the exhaust? (i kinda want to anyway) ANd I guess how stupid was I for riding it home?
