look for P1 and P4 baffles for it. Check with some of our sponsors to see if they can get them for you if not than you can find them on ebay or call Two Brothers direct.

Go ahead and yell at me but why do people want exhausts that are soooo loud that they definitely will make you deaf and they are a bother to everyone in your neighborhood? What am I missing? What is so great about becoming deaf???...literally!!!!!

I have the hindle and that is loud enough for me...many pipes are much, much louder...

There are many studies and articles about deafness due to motorcycles...in fact, many sites recommend using earplugs to lower the decibel level.

Crusher in my case I have the TBP and I love the loudness if you will that the pipe gives off. I also think it is the best looking pipe for the spyder as of yet. I on the other hand enjoy being able to hear thats why I am getting baffels to lower the dbs.

TBR claims a DB reduction of 4-5 dB.

excellent...wear earplugs...the excessive noise does cause deafness! The pipe does look really good!

If I lived somewhere other than California I might not put a loud pipe on my spyder. I have the hindle on my spyder and love the sound, its not over 90db so I won't get a ticket. It also helps when I am next to cars, so they know I am there. I have been driving myself and did not see or hear a guy on a bike because he did not have a louder pipe on his bike. While I do agree some pipes are way to loud.

TBP is up there with the loudness meter. You should have gotten a Hindle instead. Even with Hindle my neighbor still says to me "so you took the bike out today huh?" They definitely notice the Hindle but still okay with it. I personally would not go any louder than a Hindle. No baffle for the Hindle ... next one down is the OEM exaust.

i have a stock can on the spyder....i used to have a 650 savage on which i had a jardine muffler...VERY LOUD.....while im not much into listening to it for myself, there is merit to having loud pipes in that people know u are there....that is definitely a fact..and it sounds sweet to some...i like the sound, but i would rather not sit on it all day...

different strokes....:thumbup:

That is actually not true. Recent studies have shown that the only thing that statistically improves motorcycle noticeability and visibility is hi-vis clothing, including bright helmets. The more visible, higher location of a brightly clothed rider, combined with the rider's movements, do attract attention. That does not come as a surprise to me. With loud stereo systems, passengers and other distractions, as well as cars designed to be far quieter inside than ever before, it is a gamble whether any noise can be sufficient to attract attention. Even if it is, do we really want to gamble that it will make us noticeable, instead of startling a driver and causing an adverse reaction?

I disagree....i have seen it first hand...when i rode up behind people on my "loud" bike, they were straining looking around trying to find me...on my bikes with no loud muffler, they didnt have a clue i was around...i throw studies out the window when my observations tell me otherwise

The Hindle isn't that loud - actually pretty mild compared to most HD's you hear on the road.

The Rotax runs better and cooler without that fugly stock can on it - that should be reason enough to get a Hindle or other.

As far as neighbors go - it's easy to be respectful of them - just go easy on the throttle until you get down the road a bit - and especially if coming home late at night.

I suppose you could get one of those electrontic remote baffle systems like the new Corvettes have - simple click on or off for loud or quiet.
