I've got a Delkevic 350mm can on my bike, it is very loud with the baffle in, in fact alongside some bigger bikes with nice cans it's still louder.

My Exhaust came with this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330469792689 which helps but not by much.

Went onto ebay and found this

It's basically the reverse of the Delkevic, in that it allows the gases through the centre rather than out the sides. I can't see it being any better, potentially worse as it's half the length of the one on there. Although it's thinner, it's actually a straighter path.

Can I put a mesh on it or something. This is purely for neighbour friendly use and a late night ride coming up. Very Happy
If so, what sort and how to fit.
I have the Delkevic or none at all for fun.

It should make a lot of difference. The outer part will reflect the pulses which will travel back up the can interfering with the ones coming from the engine.

Fair enough, I'll give it a go later. Cheers

Oh ye of little faith indeed. Much better, lost a lot of the booming, which is obviously uncomfortable when cruising. Still loud enough to part the traffic though. Laughing

If I didn't use my bike every day it wouldn't bother me, I have tinnitus anyway before I started riding, so don't want to make things worse.
