Default 94 Ninja ZX9r - No tail pipe short test ride?

Alright well I recently bought a 94 Ninja ZX9R for 700$, good shape just needs some body work. I was going to keep it but I rather my enduro (especially the price of insurance for this a speed bike!!) so i'm selling it.

Several people are interested, but as everybody else would, want to start it up and take a test ride. The bike has NO tail pipe, only the headers installed. Is it OK to start it up and give it a short ride (like 1 mile there and back) with only the headers?

Doubt it is OK, but worth asking. thanks

Daren, it will probably sound and run like crap, but won't otherwise "hurt" the engine for that short distance. Assuming this run is in the country and not city? You will be the object of scorn on city streets....guaranteed.
