    Default RT muffler on F3S

    Has any one put an RT muffler on an F3S. My wife has some hearing loss in her right ear and would like to quite it down a bit. Current exhaust is Lamont's pipe with BCT baffle and stock muffler. Do not want to put the pre muffler back on the bike.

    Default Little checking..

    If any do it would be 2014 and up. You can check part number on cheapcycleparts.com and see if they match up....

    *update....the 2015 RT does have the same muffler some numbers vary for black/chrome.

    In Australia brp take off the short muffler and put on an rt muffler before we can buy them. So we miss out on the 'signature exhaust' sound which was one of the marketing points for the f3s.

    However my husband really wanted the short muffler so we sourced and added one. With the bypass pipe it is too loud for my ears.

    With the rt muffler the f3s is very quiet. Mine suits me.

    ps it uses a different bracket...

    The F3-T has a muffler that looks a lot like the RT. It is quieter and longer.

    Default F3

    THE F3-T and others with the OEM BAGS come with the larger muffler... reason being, that the shorter muffler would release the hot gasses (exhaust) under the right bag and cause the bottom to heat and warp or even burn up.... i would say 'yes' you could install the larger/longer muffler without any issues.... talk to the service manager at your SPYD3R dealer....

    I have a RT muffler on my F3 and also have the Cat Bypass. It sounds some much nicer compared to stock muffler.

    I found a new take off on eBay and was sent a picture on how to extend the existing mount for the RT muffler. Will post pictures when done.
