No it doesn't sound normal.

As Jerry Hall would say - "its got the ring dings"

Will it idle if you stop hitting the throttle?

Here is my bike at a idle. The idle should settle down to a nice cadence as that big piston fires off.

Ain't ever seen it......but I have heard it.

have you checked for a air leak
life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sidays totally worn out shouting "HOLY SH*T...WHAT A RIDE!"

It's not the pipe -

Did you do a air leak down test on the motor?

Do a google search for 2 stroke leak down test and confirm.

it idles fine and sounds normal i was running a little crapy sputtering here and there so i checked and cleaned the jets ran it again ran better still a little sputtering at low rpm and top rpms got back into the garage and pipe sounded different there was 4-5 inch crack in the first bend in the exhaust so finally have a better reason to tell the gf  instead it just looks ugly.
