I wouldn’t be after a loud exhaust, but one that addresses the restrictive design.

For me, the sound of the engine and it’s exhaust note is a stimulant to what little mind I have left Big Grin

Seriously! As a rider, I don't like my bike to be loud. As a citizen, I hate it when loud motorcycles drown out conversation. As I rider, I'm embarrassed for our avocation.

I think there's an underserved market for quiet aftermarket exhaust that a) reduces weight, b) looks better, and c) isn't louder than stock (but better tone is fine of course).

I really savour the silky soft, low frequency whirr-and-hum of the stock CB muffler(s).

Stichill, I'm fairly convinced we're twin brothers from different mothers.
