Baffles in or out????
 

So, my MTC cans sound great, but with baffles in, there is an annoying noise, as gasses are forced through the gap around the baffle and the end of the can, akin to a very loud reed instrument. Baffles out & the cans sound AWESOME!!! There's no weird secondary noise....
So: leave them out & risk angry plod/neighbours, or put them in & risk strange noises?? I think I have a dark hooligan side & I should seek professional advice.....

Out, Iv had mine out for over a year now and never been pulled. Should be fine

You live near london and from what my mate tells me who lives in london pc plod down there wouldnt know his motorbike with a standard can to a loud can if you paid him!!!!


OUT ALL THE WAY


WHAT WAS THAT YOU SAID:unibrow:

You might have a problem with your neighbours if you lived in my street. :pain10:

out all the way, i work nights so have to cut my engine asap wen i pull on my drive & have to feather the throttle when out in the country by horses but its sounds great on full chatt, Also great for filtering through town traffic, go 4 it.

Out Out Out!!!!

:la:

+1 Out....
 

I took my baffle out of the Akro after riding with it in for a couple of months.

So much better now, sounds like a proper bike! Also scares the kangaroos away.

Funnily enough I ride a bit more sedately now, as I am super conscious of the noise (remedied by using ear plugs!) and not such a hoon.

Have fun being loud!

I run my bikes in steath mode as much as possable...

Thanks for the answers so far - looks like it could be 90% + for leaving the baffles out!!! I do wear earplugs anyway, 'cos my lid is so bloody noisy (nice Marushin carbon job: VERY light, but wind noise is a real pain...)
Lots of horses round my neck of the woods, so have to pull clutch I guess....

hahahah :smilielol: steath mode

As your talking exhaust pipes does any know if its possible to get just a link pipe for a single can.:toothy3:

Running a 2-1 Metal Mule (Scorpion) system on my XTX. After installation we removed the baffle just for a test, the bike sounded like a top fuel dragster. With the baffle in it's still very loud, but I haven't been pulled up for it yet.

Out and remember that 'Loud Pipes Save Lives' - just close the throttle when you need it to be quiet in residential areas and around horses etc..

Your engine will also prefer not to feel asthmatic..

out !!!

Take them out i like to wake the neighbors:smilies0966: and frighten the animals.:thumbsup[1]:

Out, had no trouble with the police for my baffles out!

the new plate i'm getting will have "louder than your mum last night" as the slogan :D

:smile[2]::bigfinger[1]:

let the gases flow properly OUT :icon_lol:

Nice. I may well borrow that.

Better than "I wish my wife was this dirty".

Took mine out the Akers and lasted 30 miles before I put them back in. Far too loud drawing un wanted attention for the boys in blue.

Still pulls like a train and sounds amazing with the K&N and cut down scoop!

I've got Akra's bike runs crap with the baffles out.
