The first owner of my '19 Scrambler had installed a Zhard exhaust and decat. I knew about the slip-ons but I didn't find out about the decat until I removed the exhaust guards while installing the higher crash bars, when I had to remove the header on the right side. I've always loved the sound. My Adv buddies always comment on it. It's so unique compared to other adv bikes. I've never heard the slash cuts in person, but it has to be louder than mine.
I'm not sure if these are the newer slash cuts that come with baffles, if you got them in the last few months and they aren't old stock they should be. I found the baffles necessary for my ears! I wrapped mine in fibreglass baffle wrap which worked a treat. Also, they can be a bit tight to get on and I came across a good tip on Life of a Scrambler's channel (great channel) which is...take off the captive nut on the shield mounting tang in the middle, pop a bit of liquid soap inside the pipe, get a bit of wood and put it against the tang and tap them in. Captive nut slips back on easily. Something else I found was worth its weight was a Shapeways Leg Saver. This is a plastic shield that stops your right calf getting fried if you're riding slowly in tech terrain or round town. Again, Life of a Scrambler has a good vid on this.
I’ve seen his vids. Mine went on very easily doing the same as I’ve done for decades. I just spray the inside of the female end and the outside of the male end with WD40. Then once everything is tight, I spray the whole pipe and a rag with brake cleaner and wipe everything down so you don’t get any unwanted prints when fired up. Mine are the new ones that have the baffles. TT added those for the 22-23 bikes that had the cats moved into the silencers. My pipes stay cool and I have no heat issues.
I was finally able to get her out for a short ride during a break in the weather. Short but enjoyable break in miles. I should have that up by next weekend.
@@georgesweaton4623 one thing I didn’t show was that I sprayed the inner side of the pipe with WD40 before I slid her on. That probably made the difference.
@@wiseguyrob2005 hope your weather changes soon. My weather is very sour also. I’ll spend this weekend working on trying to get all the other mods installed. I’m guessing I’ll have all the mods done before I get decent weather. All except for the back ordered parts.
Triumph did an amazing job designing the prefect bike. Mine is all stock, love this thing as is. Stock pipes look and sound much better in my opinion. To each their own I guess. Beautiful bike though, have fun and be safe.
Thank you. It’s great we all have different tastes. I agree Triumph built a beautiful bike. But I remember scramblers of the past and these pipes fit the look of that era and that’s where my vision lays. Unfortunately the sound being quieter than that of my GSA was also not working for me.
My bikes the euro5 version. I did the factory reset for the pipes. Start up the bike from cold and NEVER touch the throttle. Let it idle till the fan comes on. After the fan comes on, let it idle another 12 minutes, then turn it off. That’s how to do the reset. My bike runs great. Just as smooth as off the showroom floor with no issues.
How have you found this long term since installing a few months ago? Have you noticed a change in performance either way? Maybe loss of lower end torque?
@@manuelarauco5711 all you do for the reset is start the bike from cold. DO NOT TOUCH THE THROTTLE AT ANYTIME. Let it idle till the fan comes on. Let the bike run at least 15 minutes then turn the bike off. Then restart the bike and you’re done. Mine started and died the first time on the restart, but has been great since.
@@charliestoybox2099 my wife rides pillion occasionally and doesn't have a problem with them. She does have to be careful getting on if they're hot though.
@@charliestoybox2099 I took mine off initially but then put them back on. When riding long distance I occasionally pop them down and put my feet back which changes my arse position on the seat and gives it a rest. Also, I do a bit of off road and if/when you drop the bike these take the fall rather than other expensive parts! You can also pop one down when stationary and hang your helmet on it :) Just came across your channel too, like and sub from NZ.
@@d.Cog420 I hang my helmet on the right side peg. I’d worry about twisting the frame if the bike dropped on the passenger peg/brackets. But I know what you mean about using the rear pegs on long rides. I’ve done that on my long distance bikes. More comfortable for me than using highway pegs.
Great install video Charles! I’m curious to try this set up on MY22 XE as an alternative option to my baffled Arrow pipes. I don’t think I would want this on long distance trips, but would be ideal on shorter rides (>150 miles) Ian
@@ScramblerOfDakota glad it helps. My longest day has been around 250 miles and I was good with it. With its baffles it’s quieter than most pipes I’ve run on Harley’s in the past. A friend had run up behind me while I was out last weekend and when we stopped to talk, he said it was quieter than he thought it would be from the pics. So definitely louder for the rider than others. It’ll pop on deceleration at lower rpm’s when the air injection kicks in.
@@charliestoybox2099 I do have a dnktune set for my arrow set up, but I’d be curious to try this set up and do the ecu relearn and see if it sorts it out just fine

Did you do a tune for the new pipes? If not, does it run lean? If so, where did you get a tune and are you happy with it?
My bikes the euro5 version. I did the factory reset for the pipes. Start up the bike from cold and NEVER touch the throttle. Let it idle till the fan comes on.

Hi brother, I'm from Brazil, how many inches are there at the exhaust outlet? 2 inches
@sergiofurtado3107 I will measure for you when I get back to America. I’m in Thailand for another week or two.
How do you know if the factory reset has been done after you install the slash cuts?

Thanks so much for the response!
Cool video. What's the decibel of the stock? And what about someone riding pillion?
I never took stock readings but the stock pipes were quieter than the stock pipes on my 2022 GSA 1250. I think these might be too short for a pillion.
@@charliestoybox2099 my wife rides pillion occasionally and doesn't have a problem with them. She does have to be careful getting on if they're hot though.

Did you keep the silencer inside the oven ? Or did you pull it out ?
The cat was in my silencers, so they are gone. The slash cuts have baffles in them.
Where did you get the chrome tank from?
@@martingadd triumph released a line of chrome edition bikes in 2023. This was the scrambler version of the Chrome Edition line.
Yes okay, of course.

@ I don’t know if Triumph would sell you a chrome tank for a none chrome model. But I’m sure it would be expensive.
Hi :) did you have to make new fuel Maps¿ thx
No, I just did the factory reset and she runs nice and smooth.

Do these require a ecu tune

@@charliestoybox2099 mines a 2019 so the cats in the header and not the slip on would this still work with the cat in place or would I need to de cat

The cat is actually in the header pipe free spirits have them for sale
Not on the new ones. They were moved into the silencers. This was the way to move the heat away from the rider.
What about the heat in the leg?
The heat isn’t a problem. The cats on my 2023 were in the silencers, so the bike runs cool now.
