(This is a quote from another section - it's more appropriate here) Apart from modified stock,it's easy to quieten down aftermarket pipes. Take out the baffles and wrap fibre-glass stove rope or ladder tape from a heating supplies firm around the baffles, fix with wire and refit. This is a universal method where you can get any exhaust down to any volume you require. I used it very successfully on my HH Short Cuts. Quiet baffles are available commercially but will give a fixed db reduction. You will find all the info available by searching this section. Hope this helps. | |

| Best way to quieten after market exhausts is to put the originals back on lol.

| I dont know how this solution is as a permanent use, but i have used it for the inspecions that needs to be done one motorbikes every 2 years here in Sweden. I have a pice of pipe with the same outer diameter as the pipes have inner diameter. One end has a welded bottom with 10, 5mm holes in them. I put 2 of those metallic "balls" that is used for cleaning, like "metallic scotch-brite", in the pipe. The inner pipe is fitted at the end of the exhaust and fitted with a screw that goes through the exhaust pipe and in to the inner pip. This reduces the sound level enough to pass through the inspection | |

| Nice one Twenty2 always better to make something up if its just for a purpose day rather than permanent and even for permanent use some times when it is a simple modification | |
