    Default What A/mkt Muffler - loud, but not too loud?

    Who makes an aftermarket muffler for the 2020 that's not too loud but still lets you hear it?

    Looking at the BRP 2020 catalog, the Akropovic sport touring silencer (219400659) is indicated for all RT's 2015 and up. So I would guess that if an aftermarket muffler fits the 2019 RT, it will probably fit the 2020 RT as well.

    Phone or email is probably your best friend on that.

    Visually the exhaust system appears to be the same as for all RT's from 2014 to present.

    I had a carbon fiber Two Brothers on my 14 and it was loud. Wife hated it.

    So on the 2020 I look for something a little quieter and I ended up with RLS
    Crusher Series and his Cat Delete. It is a low growl tone to me and the wife liked
    it. But everybody has their own preference on sound I still have a Ringing in my
    ears from 40 years of Harley-Davidson's.

    I did the same RLS delete and muffler on my '20 RTL. I went with the black ceramic coated versions, I have a Dark edition RTL. I did the delete first w/ original muffler, not much change over stock. When I added the Crusher muffler, that's when the sound came! After a couple of days i found it to be a bit to loud. After contacting Ricky @RLS, I ended up getting a couple of cheep baffles from eBay, made a couple of easy mods to make them fit, and now its right where I want it. The RLS exhaust is really nicely made with a quality finish, i'm very happy with the end results!

    Your 2020 looks soooo good, I love the colors, very similar to my 2015 RTS Special Series. But I'm gonna stay with my Mistress, she cost me about half of what you paid I guess but I can play with her and not worry about the BuRP warranty.

    I also bought a RLS Cat-Delete Resonator and had Ricky make an elbow for it connect to an Akprovic clone. I and several other Spyder Ryders love it also. Amazon sells the clones for around $50.00. They might not last very long, who knows, but for that price I can buy a new one every year.
