 Posted: 20:36 - 05 Oct 2010 Post subject: Going back to a standard can. |
 |
|
I'm sick & tired of my Scorpion, extremely loud and gets everyone's attention which is also annoying.
Anyway, swapped back to standard as the bike will be sold soon & realized how nice the factory noise is. Feels much better & gives a better sense of power then the stubby.
for my next bike i may have to stick with stock, although behind a fellow Bandit today who had a Micron which sounded very subtly but had that race can 'touch'.
Standard FTW.

I fitted a Beowulf stubby to the Bandit, and although it's noticeably louder & deeper sounding than stock, I don't think it's excessive.. and I've never been pulled for it.

I also took note of my fuel consumption before and after swapping cans, and the Beowulf actually improves the mpg, so I'm not complaining!!
I make sure I keep the removeable baffle under the seat though, so that if I did get some interest from plod (and particularly at MOT time), I can easily and quickly re-fit it  ____________________ 1st bike (Sept'06 - May'10) : 1991 GPZ500S / Current bike (since Nov 2009) : 2003 Suzuki Bandit 600N

I used to have a Harris system on my ZX6R and that included a carbon Harris end can.
I took it off and put the factory system and end can back on.
I also took off the smaller number plate off and put the standard one back on.
Why?, because every time I went out for a ride with the small plate and after-market exhaust, plod would want to have a word with me and wag their fingers at me for being such a heinous criminal!

Empty Vessels make most noise.
And loud cans are fitted to bikes by little boys who refuse to mature.
Get them off.

Yoko had my 636 before me....It wasnt a standard exhaust, just a race rep one.... sounded lush.
I put the MoTo GP one on, loud, attention seeker type of can.
I liked it, but got on my tits.
Put the baffle in for mot - and I prefered it that way.
Am thinking to going back to a simple race rep can - cheap kind because it sounds smoother....
