quietest slip on
« on: March 21, 2013, 04:54:04 PM »
Looking for a slip on that will not be too loud on long sustained hours on slab. Very hard to tell on youtube.

Thoughts?

I have a Holeshot.  Sounds great when playing and is not at all offensive on the highway.  Remember when your bags are on they help to keep perceived noise down.

My Leo Vince (carbon fiber) has a nice quiet growl.  It passes the "livestock test" which means herds of cattle, goats, or whatever don't run when I roll by them grazing in fields near my favorite back roads.  Other pipes on other bikes sometimes haven't passed my livestock test.

See and hear in person. YouTube can give you an indication , but reading about sound levels could lead to a purchase disappointment.

My Vance & Hines CS-1 is just loud enough if ya know what I mean, and doesn't look like some added-on appendage of dubious origin.

I know the perfect muffler for being not loud, fitting perfectly, highly efficient, 100% legal, looking just fine, covered by a great 3 year warranty, no installation effort,  and also extremely economical....

I like My Area P. Very reasonable sound, and a nice growl when I release the hounds.

Two Brothers have many reducer options
They call them Power tips ? they reduce power and sound different sizes
I have the small ones but I have duals on ZX headers.

I know the perfect howitzer for making pretty much no sound, fitting horribly, highly hideous and humongous, 100% legal, looking just enormous, covered by a great 3 year warranty, no installation effort, and also extremely heavy and portly....

The Electrolux has more pizzaz.  I'd run that one in a heartbeat.  And it has a carrying handle.  What more could you ask for?

I have a 2 Bros carbon fiber slip on with one of the quiet baffles in it. It's not much louder than stock until you rip on it. Then it screams. Without the baffle it was too loud.

Sounds like a bunch of butt dyno's at work here. 


Leo Vince with the insert is the same dB as stock.
