That's a dramatic decrease in volume. I just wrapped my 8" Delkavic slip-on and it made a nice difference where I was trying to get rid of the harsh tone when opening up the throttle. It worked. I was too cheap to buy the nice fiberglass wrap that you had so I opted to cut a piece of a fiberglass welding blanket I had laying around.
Now you have increased the back pressure, do you have power commander to adjust your air/fuel mix? I would get an exhaust back pressure gauge and make sure im in the green, if not you'll burn your valves and get an unexpected engine cease with no warning.😮
Hey thanks for watching. Haven't noticed any issues, but only done around 100 miles since doing the mod. Seems like a common thing to do so not worried. Overall I'm just very happy with reducing volume but keeping a low tone
@XSR_700 thanks for getting back to me I was looking at doing it and saw people had back pressure issues was hesitant but I'll give it a try and see what happens
Where do you get the baffle wrap from? And also which model is the quieter bw exhaust I need for mine? Also what db was the stock exhaust out of interest?
Hi, I bought the baffle wrap from eBay, cost about £10 and got loads left over. The larger and quieter exhaust I have is the 300ST, it's perfect for me. Unfortunately I didn't test DB readings of the stock exhaust, but it should be on your nearside front fork from the factory

Fibreglass is fibreglass, bet it's great!

cant believe you wrapped that without gloves. the fibers cut in to the skin bro. latex gloves people. those of you who have common sense and give af
I had gloves on... Did you watch the video?
How did you take it out I’m struggling to do it can’t find the right screw to do it?
There's a little Allen key bolt on the underside, covered by a rubber grommet. Remove that bolt then it should slide out
Hi mate is there any issues with doing this also how often do you have to change the floss cheers

@@XSR_700 thanks, i want the deeper exhaust but dont want to upset the neighbors!!
Go for it, hope you like it. Think I saw your purchase on the XSR Enthusiasts FB group, looks very nice! @@Kenneth_McGrew
@@XSR_700 yes! now got to wait a week to pick it up!
sorry to be a pain again, but fitting this exhaust is it a simple job, bolt off and on? does it fit well etc? jus wanted to ask before i bought one
That won't work, what the heck. You closed off everything. Your packing will not stay in it blow all over.
Seems to have worked ok, still in there and doing it's job. A bit of experimentation for sure, but I'm happy with it
What about back pressure?
