Trying to decide which exhaust to get for my bike. Have watched a load of videos, but it's hard to gauge noise levels without it being it person. Is there anyone near Guildford, Surrey or Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, UK with either a slip on, decat, or full system? Thanks!
I live in Loxwood, 15 miles south of Guildford. I have a full Arrows exhaust on my 1200. It's probably no different to the one for the 1260. PM me if you want to meet and have a gander. Peter
Boxhill is east of Guildford so not near me but an easy ride away. Happy to meet you there. What dry day would suit you? I'm retired so any day I'm not playing golf suits me.
I have the full race exhaust system for the enduro, which is/was the same engine as the DVT. However mine had the pipes ceramically coated by zircotec to disperse the heat out the end. Doesn't have a baffle & I'm close to royal-leamington-spar' PM for popping over if you wish; I am working from 1430hours rest of the week.
Oxford? Run a cat with the cat inside removed and a Leo Vince end can. Had a decat plus the Leo and way to loud.
Thanks, but I'm looking for a more "off the shelf" solution, so I can revert it to standard when I sell the bike. But it's very interesting to hear that you think the decat system is too loud. Was that too loud even with the baffle?
On a different subject, did you coat your new multi with ACF50? If so, any tips on getting it in everywhere? did you have to remove many panels? Regards
I did, yes. I found that most things were easily accessible without needing to take off panels, so I didn't. I've got a large bottle of liquid ACF50, not a pressurised spray. So I just dab a small amount onto a cloth and apply to the bike, then wipe off excess with a different, clean cloth. Just coat all the metallic parts, including the brakes, but none of the friction surfaces! (Be very careful with that)
