Hi all,

Before I buy some after market exhausts, I decided today to save 500 bucks, debaffling my bike.

I used a 35mm hole saw, cut the final tube, and that's all !

That cost me 11.35 euros (about $13 USD) and that take 5 minutes to do the work.

Now I'm very happy . The sound is a little bit louder, but not too much, and the note is deeper.
Like a true motorcycle.

The story is here :
Debaffling tapered stock exhausts in 5 minutes

It's about an America 2009 EFI model, I'm not sure that works for each model.

I'll add a video soon .

Excellent work Frenchy! I have a 2005 SM w/ the same type of pipes but I paid to have Chevy 605 do mine. I think yours sound just as nice. Congratulations!

Nicely done Frenchy... great write up and video.

While visiting that great site of yours, this picture really caught my attention. I don't mean to hijack this thread but could you tell us a bit about that trailer, even in another thread if you'd rather?

Sure, a user of my forum made billet for that (in french):
Giwi trailer

It's about a special trailer for motorcycle made by a french company http://www.wipigroup.fr/

The trailer contains 200 liters, its weight is 45 kg empty and we can fill-in it for 35 kg more. It's suitable for any bike model/mark

I think the sound i not so deep enough (I mean bass), and about the loudness, for me its ok because I do not want to fight with my neighbors. Anyway it's louder than stock.

And because I already spent a lot of money with Tsukayu hards bags and heated grips, I thought It was time to slow down with money...

I should have done it sooner

Yes ,
back to the pipes,

I uploaded a new video I made this afternoon with Gopro HD cam.

It's a short vid but the sound is really "reallistic".
I mean, the sound you hear in the video is very very close to the real sound.

Triumph America sound test - Debaffled stock pipes (Tapered)

And I think it's not so bad.
