"True duals" exhaust setup

HMMM...That's a great questions. So I have stock exhausts and I can hear the speaker clearly. When I get to about 60mph (w/o a windshield) then it starts to get distorted because of the wind (inaudible at 80mph). With a windshield, it starts to get distorted around 70mph (inaudible around 90mph). Id imagine, since you have a straight piped Sportster, it will be clear up until maybe 50mph or less because the exhaust is going to overpower the noise of the speaker. At that point, i would much rather listen to the music through my Cardo headset so its a lot clearer. Otherwise you'd have to keep the RPM's low so as not to drown out the sound of the speaker. I hope that answers your question.

@@ShiftNSmiles hey thanks for getting back with me I think I'll just go with the cardo I was looking into that then I seen you video and had to ask

@dalton1068 no problem man! Thanks for asking. I can give you more information on the comm system I have? It's the Cardo Packtalk Edge

@Gringa_L made a new friend on my cross country trip. He just came up to me and we chatted for about 20 minutes. Pretty lighthearted and easy going. I'm glad you're on board!

@@ShiftNSmiles That is so lovely! Sometimes road trips feel elevated from daily life - a little magical. 😃

@@tinsy1773 thank you 🙏! It took some time to get it how I wanted so I appreciate you

Yamaha's are great bikes from what I'm told and with the little experience I have riding them. What do you mainly use your T7 for? What kind of Slort Touring model are you looking to get?

@@Mike-q1z9w hell yeah brother

I hope you get the bike and it's what you envision it to be!

@@ShiftNSmiles just depends if the dealer can make it happen with as much as I owe on the trade bikes.

@@turtle19dad what bike are you planning on trading in?

@@ShiftNSmiles I have a Versys X 300 and a Rebel 1100T

Sorry to hear that

Thank you

I've seen and love that video! F9 knows what he is talking about. Thanks for the advice man 🙌

Thanks bro!!

@@Jaybird913 haha "yes"

@@jjrebel2543 you are correct! Also, got me a new fairing with it

@@FurinaMina love that for you!

@@UnfollowWill thank you- I’m hoping to get more in the future as the channel grows! I appreciate your support 🙏

You got it!

@@sethcanter3128 😆 🤣

@high_commando hell yeah man! I appreciate you sharing the good news! I hope it's everything you been dreaming of

@@ShiftNSmiles 100% bro ride safe my man

@mrloftybreez1503 I appreciate the feedback man. I'm to hear that about the bike. I hope it was still enjoyable, nonetheless. Did you do anything to take care of the handguards and grips to make it more comfortable?

@@hiltonlouque1504 did they put the bike on the chopping block?? No '25 model?

@@MrWolf2212 I was told that after riding the bike🤣🤣 wish I would have known it sooner but it is what it is😆

That's cool that trains do that too. Very hard to come close enough to a train to do that. I hope to one day!

@acewilly9991 ill give that a try! I have a trip coming up very soon so it's worth a try

the wet shirt was a good idea. The ice im not so sure

@fuglbird it does take up space but the Toucan is pretty comfy. But only fits me, not another person...lol🤣

If you had to customize the bike with a paint job what color would you make it? I feel you on the high flow air cleaner and sport muffler. That would have been a very nice touch! 👍

@@MadMexism ooooo, that's a big change! What's making you consider the switch??

@@ShiftNSmiles try something different. These bikes can be on or off road. The glide is strictly pavement. Let’s see what happens. lol

@@MadMexism you've got a point! You can either cruise on the pavement or tear up the great outdoors! It's nice having both options! The Pan Am was tons of fun and enjoyable

@johnhernandez6434 hell yeah man! I'm glad you enjoy it! I tried figuring out what that white light meant so thanks for clarifying it for me

@@etishbite456 what's the problem with it?

@ShiftNSmiles i have a 2021 scout bobber 60 and on the freeway, this bike gets twitchy so much wind problems. After making custom fork fairings and a larger wind screen it's become more enjoyable.

@@etishbite456 damn man...I'm sorry to hear it doesn't feel as stable. But im happy to hear you found a way to hopefully fix that! 😊

@ShiftNSmiles I'm sensitive with bikes. I know a guy with a 2023 bagger harley and once he hits 100 mph his bike gets squirlly. Fork fairings are soo good. I'll send you a video. It looks nice actually. You can feel the wind diverting

@@etishbite456 damn...I didn't know about that! I appreciate your help! Send it over when you get a chance

Stay vigilant if and when you do man! Sadly, like I’m sure you know, not everyone sees us😔

Where can one get there hands on a "pre-euro5 MT10"??

@@ShiftNSmiles I believe all MT10s of 2021 model year and prior. Pretty sure 2022 was the year Euro 5 hit them. I owned a 2018 and a 2022. I expected a similar experience when I bought my '22 and was pretty disappointed.

​@@leanit5756What do you own now ??

@@MrWolf2212 My street bike is a bass boat blue '23 XSR900.

@@leanit5756 you don't miss the power coming from MT 10??

Woah! Good Luck! I hope they give you a lot for your trade. That CVO Pan Am was tons of fun

I just traded my 2023 for one its well worth it.

Honestly no 😔 The intention of this was to go into it completely not knowing anything for the sake of raw emotions and perspective. But, knowing the power difference ahead of time definitely could have helps. I reference the different engines sizes between the two in the video though😊

I can definitely hear that!

stock pipes on every bike sound like sewing machines

The color definitely caught my attention! Didn't think I'd enjoy the color scheme that much...

Thank you! I feel like it really fits the mood!

Yep. Great music!
