Default Exhaust Help

I love my bike, but dislike the V-Twin sound it offers me.

I purchased a Yoshimura pipe, in hopes to change the baffled sound of your standard SV, to find no sound difference whatsoever.

I noticed there are baffles clear up to the head throughout the pipe, which is different than your typical exhaust system, but is there a way to get a sound similar to that of a gsxr exhaust, and not so deep? Thanks in advance.

Just in case this is not a wind up. If you want an inline 4 sound, get rid of the v-twin.

I like my SV just fine.

Just trying to make it sound like a street bike, as opposed to a quieter Harley, lol.

You do realise the tone is a characteristic of the engine and not the exhaust right?

Oh yes, having been the reason I mentioned the VTwin in the first place

I didnt think it was possible, but since this is my first time on here I thought I would ask. Thanks for your quick replies.

Feel free to lock.
