• 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.

Hello,

I had a HMF on 2008 GS...I liked the sound, not obnoxious, It also had a baffle that easily removed if you wanted more rumble...
 
I cannot give any info about the F3 muffler fitting on a 08/GS. Back in the day, Hindle seemed to be the muffler of choice. If you put that in the search function...there are a lot of threads about it.
 
Send me an F3 muffler i can modify it to fit for $250. i will build it to fit make a proper bracket and re ceramic coat it black
 
I tried several mufflers and settled on this Yoshimura. It sounds GREAT! I get a lot of comments on the sound. Mild at lower throttle settings, mellow at cruise, but sounds AWESOME at WOT! Love to hit it in tunnels... Went riding with some BRP marketing and engineer personnel back at the Colorado event several years ago. They wanted to know more about my exhaust saying that it was the sound that they wanted to develop.

It is the RS-3 model. There are other styles if you don't like the looks of this one that give pretty much the same results. I run mine with the optional baffle (easily removed). The stand alone picture is not impressive. But I think it looks very good on the bike. It is an oval shape (longer vertically than horizontally).

Another feature I like is that it is a tough muffler. The 998 is very hard on exhaust systems. I've got about 25,000 miles on this muffler and it's still just like new. It is rebuildable as well, which I did this last year. I was surprised that the packing was still in pretty good shape. It really didn't need to be rebuilt.

This link is generic to give you an idea of pricing. If you look around, you can probably find them for less. You will also need a 90 degree elbow to fit this to an older RS/RSS/GS Spyder.
