Re: Exhaust Baffles?
Do you have to drill a hole in your can to fit these? Or can you attach them some other way?

Re: Exhaust Baffles?
Yup you need a bolt-hole afaik
Some cans have a circlip inside, but that takes a bit of precision to work without rattling all over the place.

Re: Exhaust Baffles?
most if not all have removable exhausts.........i think..
if yours has been removed then the hole should still be there, if not, well out with the drill...

Re: Exhaust Baffles?
Sod that then, not putting holes in my art can
 Would have kept it under the seat incase of getting pulled over.

I've got an ART can on my bike (fitted with no original when i bought it) and it would have failed the MOT if I hadn't had one of these. It just slipped in (oo-er) and my bike passed without having to secure it properly. You are supposed to drill a small hole to keep it in place with a bolt (provided). I think mine cost about £12 posted from a supplier in UK. Just google DB Killer or Decibel Killer and have a look. Why do you want to make it quieter? |

Re: Exhaust Baffles?
Nah, unless the MOT tester was a tosser you'd probably have gotten an advisory.
Wanted it just incase, same reason I carry around my clear visor during the day time. |
