• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

2014 RT silencer options

Looking at silencer options at the moment,

I have spoken to Yoshimura and Mivv neither of whom are planning to offer a silencer for the 1330 ACE engine. Pity as I really fancied the Yoshi tri oval carbon can.

Pretty much leaves;
Akrapovic
Two Brothers Racing (Dos Bros Tacos)

Any others out there?

Thanks
Nito
 
Thanks Chaps,

Funny that no one seems to want to get on board with these, perhaps the V-twin versions never sold that well to warrant them making ones for the triple. Both Yoshimura and Mivv offer them for the twins.

Looks like a Two Brothers it might end up being then.

Cheers

Hadn't really thought about it. It was more for cosmetics and a little more sound. I'll be blacking mine out to RT-S type spec and all my muffler heat shields are silver, by the time I powder coat the oe shields etc may as well go for a sports muffler and get some extra sound and better looks.

I love the Yoshimura pipes, how different will the fitment be between the twin and triple I wonder?
 
I've only heard a couple of the TwoBrothers and find them obnoxious, and I'm a Harley dude used to loud pipes. I would like to hear the Akropovic. Haven't found anyone yet who has them.
 
I definately do not want obnoxious.

Saying that, my stock pipe is getting louder all the time. I wonder if the packing used in the silencer burns away with the heat, there is some serious heat coming out of that pipe after a spirited run.

I saw the vid of the TB system and it didn't sound too bad, but I've no first hand experience of them. I don't like the looks of the Akra pipe, or the price for that matter.
 
Hello chaps, been off the forum for a while pursuing other interests, back now the Sun is coming out again ;)

Back to the top with this topic! Any more silencer options for the ACE1330 triple? Has anyone tried a '13 silencer on a '14 to see if it physically fits and suits engine characteristics?

cheers

Check with Pitbull

They've just come out with a great looking and sounding muffler for the F3, and at Daytona, Len said they would have one for the RT by Spyderfest.
 
Tailgunner has one for 2014RT. Does not show 2014 on there site but if you pick a muffler you like then add the connector pipe they have one for the ACE engine :thumbup:
 

I too am looking for a little more sound for my 1330. What research I have done, both available mufflers state that the sound will not be a lot different from stock unless the CAT is removed. Thinking of having just the CAT removed first before investing in a new muffler.

Had the CAT removed on the 998 and all it did was produce a better sound. Unless someone comes out with something that is better I will stick with stock.

I was also reading the same stuff.Not much change in sound just the appearance of a nice muffler on a 2014 RT. They claim its because its a 3 cylinder not a 2 :dontknow:
 
Yep - sticking with stock, until Yosh gets off the dime. Current choices are either too loud or too costly. $900 for a slip on muffler... Really??
 
Thanks,

I'll have a listen to that when I get home tonight! For me the Akra does nothing aesthetically, I love the Tri-oval Carbon Yoshimura however. The Tri also fits in with the Spyder theme. Akra missed a trick with only two outlets...triple engine deserves triple outlets to match the Y logo arrangement, 2 holes above, one below!! More effort required Akrapovic, especially for the coin involved :( !
 

I still prefer the stock look over any of the others. The AKR was a nice sound with the baffles out but about the same with the baffles in. Lot's of dinero for a muffler that you have to dismantel to get some sound.

I would like to see/hear a video of a 1330 with the CAT removed. If it increases the sound much I would stick with the stock muffler. It made a big difference on my 998 with stock muffler. CAT removal was $400 from PitBull. I read in a previous post that Len and Lamont are working on something.
