the trouble with slip ons on these bikes is the orignal has to be cut to fit them so youl have to buy new original headers if you want the standard system or get a can and weld it up.
however what id do is measure inside diameter of the end of your exhaust and and get a little baffle and nut and bolt it like these

Not entirely true......most new scorpions come with a sleeve that allows you to fit the standard back on - mine did, it just requires an additional clamp.

However, why you would want a mahoosive original spud gun on is beyond me.

Scorpion are not to everyone's taste - you could always look at selling it to someone and then buying a new aftermarket replacement which is not as loud. I'm sure plenty can recommend.

Sell you my one, a decent noise nothing harsh though.
Removable baffle, clamp etc
But no link pipe!
Hardly done any miles, couple hundred I think before I took it off!

Which Viper Baffle was it? I have one of these cans sat in the cellar - was too loud for starting the bike up on the street :-)

Nope, none of mine were ever too loud. With lots of sweet talking all of them have passed MOT's with an advisory, even my race can :cool:

Yep, my Scorpion was too loud without a baffle, so drilled a hole in the tail pipe and fitted a DbKiller, easy.

Now got a Fuel end can, with a baffle

why would anyone want to reduce the noise?

Surely we should be finding ways to increase it?

Haha, only kidding... but I do like mine loud :D
