I want it both ways. I want the power of a free breathing muffler but I want to be able to temporarily quiet that thing when I want to. With the top off, the muffler is just too loud. After about 20 minutes or so you get ear fatigue from the low rumble (idle is actually worse than when the engine winds-up).
So I remember some thread on Pelican a while ago discussing putting motorcycle baffles in the sport pipes. What's the deal with that? I like the idea because it sounds like an easy install and easy to remove on the fly. I went to a Ducati/Honda shop in Sunnyvale yesterday and they had no idea what I was talking about. So, where do I get those baffles? Also I found that some people have actually installed three pipes and run the sport pipes capped when they want quiet operation. See photos below. So what do you think? Attached image(s) |
