• 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.

Stock Exhaust - adjustment/baffle?

Hi guys. Just curious to know if there is a way to quiet down the stock exhaust, aside from getting a new pipe?
ie: is there a baffle or other small mod available for the exhaust pipe?

Cheers.

Yeah, sit on Spyder with the engine off.

Seriously, most folks are wanting to make it louder.
 
It is what it is...as they say. It is pretty quiet for a motorcycle, though. Not BMW stealth-bike quiet, but close. All the aftermarket pipes are considerably louder.
 
Thanks guys.


Is the BRP Hindle louder then stock?

Everything is louder than stock. Your bike is a very quiet bike unless your muffler has been gutted. How quiet do you want.......the wind noise is louder at 40 than these bikes?
I guess you could frankenstien some big honking muffler on there but I bet you will lose power and milage. Give it some time, you may grow to like it.

If you want it twin sound...

and keep it quiet too. You might build a twin manifold and put an exhaust on each side. I did this and installed a set of GL1800 mufflers on one of mine. It is quiet and has the twin sound with no loss of power or performance.

Some owners have constructed custom headers and installed various other twin mufflers for a better sound.

Heres a link for you to look at. http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15079&highlight=twin+headers

Also "atadude" has some good information for duals. I was just looking for his link on the setup he used but I couldn't find it./Ken

Dean, I think I can honestly say you are the first person I have ever heard asking about how to make their machine quieter. :D

:opps: I'm used to an XT250 with a spark arrestor ;).
From what I've 'heard' on youtube and the like, I think the stock pipe is pretty good as it is :).


Cheers.
