    Default Muffler -- 2011 RT - Bummed out

    I had a 2-bros muffler installed by PitBull less than 14000 miles, less than 2 years old, have a hole punctured in the muffler.
    I need to replace the muffler. I enjoy reading spyder lovers with such great information, and really enjoy going to spyder fest.
    Still having a difficult time choosing a muffler. I will not go back to 2-bros again, even though I like the sound. Replacing mufflers every two years is not an option I like. I saw Micron, Yoshimura R-77, and Hinder seems to be most common choices. I like a little sound ( more than stock ), but most important reliability. Need help deciding.

    Thanks in advance for you help.

    If Micron, what model for 2011 RT-S?

    Default Pipes..!!

    have dealt with a lot of pipes in my time. Many great ones no longer around here anyway but a great one that is is Yoshimura. I have patched and rebuilt my Hindle several times and it has been good for 2+ years but time to move on. I have ordered the yoshi 77 have heard good things about them...

    Smile Correction -- I applogize

    Somehow my mind was thinking Pitbull when I was writing this. I meant Cowtown in Cuba. Sorry. I blame it on old age.
    Thanks for your reply. Looks like I will go with either the Spyder Attitude or Yoshimura R-77. Time to shop.
    Is there any spyder sponsors that sell either of these mufflers? Would like to support them instead of ebay or amazon.

    Some mufflers, like the 2 Bros. and many others, require repacking at intervals. If this is not done in a timely manner, the packing goes away and allows focused exhaust to hit one portion of the external can. Over time you'll get a hole there and need a new muffler.

    Repacking can give you many more years of service on this type of muffler.

    Default For Sale

    I have a 2013 ST and installed a Yoshimura 77 last summer with only 500 miles ridden on it. Was too quiet for me, but I did'nt remove the baffles. If it will fit your RT I will sell at a good price. PM me and we can discuss.
