OK so after 2 weeks of exitedly waiting for my silencers to arrive, all fitted in about 15mins - they look lovely, really well made but sound a little ........ meh :-( I must say im really disapppointed. Has anyone else fitted them and found the same? Are the baffles removable? After having a number of previous bikes changing for termis (or others) has always really improved the sound - this time not so much. .......I hope I have not wasted £1,200 quid!
If they haven't deleted the massive catalyser under the bike... there's little they will do imo.. Both V4 and V2 are significantly dumbed down on perf and sound without a proper Exhaust
Feels that way - its a real shame as my past monster1200, hyper950 an pani1199 all still had the CATs in and sounded really good with just a silencer swap - first time ive felt let down like this. now off to see if the flap delete or disable is an option on this bike to help a little.
That’s why I bought the full system as the slip ons just ‘look’ good but sound very much like standard. The Monster SP is the same, they look like the full system version but they aren’t.
The kit you have fitted is the "homoglated", road legal kit. Same as stock, but better looking and a bit lighter. Your previous bikes you mention, at least the M1200 and 1199 removed the cats as they were in the silencers. The system Ian has fitted is the "race" kit.... that's where the noise is
