CALL ME 'CRAZY', but i can't leave well-enough alone....
i just had to do it... another DIY MUFFLER MOD, # III... STUBEE is her name...
this time i gutted that sucker, CAT and all, replaced the insulation & perf-core, glued it back together, and OMG.....
WHAT A SOUND... AWESOME... i now can hear the TWIN-V tone @ idle, which wasn't audible with the OEM or my other MODS....
i chopped 12" out from the OEM size, and it went from 18# to 8#... i'm get'n better @ this stuff... my 1st 1 took all day, this 1 took me about 3 hrs...
hope you like the pix....

Neat looking mod. :2thumbs:

Would be interested to see if the muffler mod creates any issues with the computer controlled systems. There were some issues when people installed Hindles, and have read many threads where people have had to resort to additional add ons like juice boxes, etc. Just wondering what will happen/if anything.

i have had ZERO issues with any of my MOD's.... this 1 included... i'm riding tomorrow to see if the HEAT changes...
i was gona do an ULTRA STUBEE, but i decided against it... (the mounting strap wouldn't work).... check out pic #2 for the difference in length between the OEM, MOD Shortee, & MOD Stubee....

Great to know. :thumbup: I know there are a few out there that would like to do it as long as the :spyder2: does not protest.

When I got my '08 GS, the previous owner had put on the Hindle (very loud and straight through) and the computer didn't like it... It poped and backfired until I put in an O2 simulator... When I put on the BRP after market muffler, I went back to the stock O2 sensor and all is well... and gas milage is up a bunch. My Riding Buddy, Spyd3r, said my bike smelled of raw gas and that's when I changed back. :clap::ani29:

But; you can always post the video on Youtube, and then post the link to it in here... :thumbup:

What do you paint/coat the can with? Does it smoke a while afterwards?

Hey Dan,
create an account on YouTube and upload them there. They will dumb down the quality automatically when you upload them there. just make sure to make them public, then copy/paste the YouTube link here.
Easy peesy.
