Quiet aftermarket muffler

Post by Prof J » Thu Aug 01, 2019 5:56 pm


I'm wondering what users of aftermarket cans think are the more 'quieter' cans?

I'm pretty hard of hearing and want the most quiet aftermarket I can find. I do use and have various ear plugs, and my current focus is on the most quiet can.

Thank you.

I noticed no noise increase with the akrapovic slipon until I cut the cat off.

After researching this myself I went with the Yoshi alpha. Super quiet even without the low volume insert.

Also, I think it looks great.

Is the slip on the only mod you have done?

I am wanting to change exhaust mainly for looks and do like the looks I already changed to the sprint filter

Don’t really want to tune ecu yet

any slip on that has a db killer in it will be pretty quite with the catalyst still in place

Yes, just the slip-on so for. And I'll be doing the ECU flash tune soon - just the lowest power tune.

Justin, does the Yoshimura interfere with panier?

It doesn't. At the end of this video you can see how it looks with panniers.

+1 for the Yoshi Carbon can. Looks great and sounds better as well. As stated, no problem with the panniers although it sure sits close to the rim (no issues though).

The other thing to remember is that the bulk of the baffling on these bikes is done in the "toaster" underneath. So any slip-on with decent baffling is going to be fairly quiet.
