Drilled exhaust baffles

Hi all,an update regarding my Street twin exhausts.Some may recall my earlier posts as i wanted my standard pipes to sound deeper more like a 900cc twin Bonneville as i remember them,never going to be the same exactly but nearer.I have had a pair of TEC Rebel slip on’s that were/are to me a great improvement over standard,a deep richer, more powerful sound especially under power and great on the over run changing down.After watching a you tube video that shows a chap that had drilled the baffles from his standard pipes and how it has improved the sound to his liking and mine.Yesterday a very good fella (a diamond driller ) cut the baffles from my set with great success.Today i put them back on the bike and took it out for a good run and WOW exactly what i had hoped for,feels as it should in my opinion,a 900cc powerful twin Bonneville,now i have the looks i fell for originally along with the sound that suits the bike and myself.Happy days.Yes i know there are folk that are content with how the bike sounds as is and that’s great so please resist the urge to point it out to me,thanks.OApete.UK

That’ll probably be me, Pete, but if you’re happy with your change that’s fine by me. We all like to tweak our bikes to suit our own tastes. :+1:

Hi all, images of the baffles in side the Street twin 2018.The inner dimensions of the baffle tube are 18mm.the inlet pipes are 38mm ! ! Small wonder its muted but understandable for the laws to get round.Quality material used though all stainless steel.The exhausts look totally standard after the modification,the end pipe inside the the tail of the can is still intact.
