Alright I know I have read quite a few posts about exhaust mods and what not but can't seem to find my answer. I plan on taking the mufflers off my bike and either running as i recall (1 3/4) to the proper length however, my question is. Has anyone had luck with putting their own baffles in without having to re-jet? 4", 6", or 8"? And would I also just need to get 1 3/4 diameter baffles. I don't mind re-jetting if I have to down the road as I am going to have to when i switch to pods (next winter project) but for now i would like to avoid it.
Yeah, some do...and yes, very loud. I once extended my header pipes (no crossover) a few inches with 1 3/4" exhaust tubing, then fabricated a pair of 24 inch long drag pipes out of 2" exhaust tubing (no baffles)...sounded really great at idle.....but, needless to say...extremely loud...a friend told me he could hear me coming for at least 3 or more miles away, at cruising speed. I had to almost (and should have) worn ear plugs......removed & ditched those pretty quick...only did it to just see what it sounded like.
