Hi! I've been having this idea to change the exhaust set-up on my bike for a while now. Looking at a lot of pictures to get some ideas, I think i want to build a 2 in 1 exhaust. I have build some exhausts before but these where more ''form over function'' (i guess ). So before i start building and go through the hassle of dialing everything in, I would like to hear some experiences and feedback on the exhaust setting. Dont get me wrong, i really like the looks of the original mufflers. However i do miss some ''sound'' in the low RPMs, and wont miss the weight of the original set-up. So here what i'm aiming for: Increase ride-ability, especially in the low/mid range. Not looking for max HP here! Deep exhaust tone, NOT racing loud. I use the bike every day. Keep the original headers. from the headers, fab a 2 in 1 piece where the original crossover is located (under the gearbox). go left or right to a aftermarket muffler. Here some examples (who doesnt love pictures of pretty guzzis ) nevermind the header set-up on this last bike. (but gorgeous nevertheless) Things I would like some input on: Dont know what the 2 in 1 will do to the exhaust sound/note? I know there is a lot of black magic involved with exhaustsystems, gasflow, pipe diameter, length, etc. anyone a idea what the difference is between 2-1-2 vs. 2-1? Again, im looking for a nice sound and good ride-ability. Edit: fixed the layout
