I know this has been asked before but after spending the last hour searching old threads I cant really seem to find what im looking for...... Just collected my 13 Pikes Peak and wanting to remove the cat. The bikes fitted with a Termi stubby and im a little nervous of getting the leo vince decat pipes purley based on noise people say it produces... I know they do a removable baffle however after email talks with CJS a while back he recommended not fitting the extra baffle you can buy. I do a fair few miles and some touring and dont want the noise to cause monster headaches hahaha! How does the sound compare to a full Termi system, is this the quieter option? I know its alot more expensive....... Whats the pros and cons of each? Thanks in advance Nick
I have the termi stubby and leo setup and it's awesome, the db killer that they supply is rubbish from my point of view as it removes the bark, had a custom db killer made which just makes the bike a little less noisy but it's still nice and deep, don't worry about the noise wear ear plugs. bike does seem to run better without cat
Where did you have the dB killer made do you have any pics of this ? This does seem the cheapest route to go and i dont mind abit of noise but don't want something that's just crazy load and drives you mad on a 300 mile day trip
I think it's going to be a bit loud for what you are after as I aimed for having the noise I don't have the details of the person who made it as it was a mates contact but it is better quality than the leo db killer imo and over £20 cheaper at £40. I'm sure I could ask him to see if he can get another one. There are a few videos on you tube which give you an idea of the noise of the leo which swayed me towards that choice
I used to have a drilled plate on my 2011 ,It was a disk that fitted between the can and the pipe , it certainly quietened the bike down a lot , though it was still loud. reckon the stubby will get on your nerves on long trips , mine did and I like to make a racket
