Stan what all did you do to it?
RE: Stock Exhaust Mod - iamheero_imp - 04-23-2016
Exhaust videos need to be taken from a distance, not with phone cameras stuck right in the muffler, ideally with the camera stationary and the bike being ridden up and down the street while increasing the revs and shifting- I had NO idea what this bike sounds like even with your clip.

My bet is that he drilled the snot out of it with a very long drill bit. Sounds good.

Are you getting any decel popping?
RE: Stock Exhaust Mod - SStan11_imp - 04-23-2016
I used a regular drill bit and just removed the end cap. I re-installed the cap and took a quick video. As far as the sound, it is very low and deep, loud enough to hear until the wind noise at speed happens. Simple easy mod done with a drill and a regular drill bit. Sounds great and kept the stock look. Sorry I am not Steven Speilberg and I didn't shoot an academy award winning video, so suck it up.

I thought the video was fine, it sounds good. I just wanted to know if you were,getting any decel popping while riding and letting off the throttle? Also, what size bit did you use?

I used a 1/2 inch drill bit, (the biggest one I had), and I do not hear any pops even in a low gear high rpm. It just sounds great. Real low tone but not real loud. Plus I can't stand the aftermarket pipes with the huge decals they stick on them. Screws up the look of the bike. Now I can keep the stock look and have a great sound.

Stan, thank you. Seems like it could be a very worthwhile mod considering I don't have an extra $500+ laying around for an Arrow. I was concerned about the decel popping because many bikes ago I had a Honda VTX 1300 that I did the same mod too. I had bad decel popping, had to block off the PAIR valves to stop it. Thanks again!!
