Ebay exhaust opinions?
Can anyone highlight any possible issues with running an exhaust like this one in the link?
It's very short. Any issues with back pressure, fuel consumption and power? I wonder if it will all be negative effects apart from the sound obviously. Cheers Chris http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1806667290...#ht_3278wt_986 |

Re: What about this badger?
I used to use the exhaust, it is very loud it runs at 105db with baffle in, i didnt have any problem with the running while it was on or notice any more fuel consumption at all

On Denmark where i live, the legal limit is 90db but i run without bafler in mine, an i have been stoped several times, but never because of that. It looks cool, thinking about buying One my self, but i like the high mount.

Re: Ebay exhaust opinions?
they are "harsh" to say the least, I personally don't like the sound or particularly the look, but more importantly I think they just breach the "draw plods attention" bracket, I know it's personal choice but my Peg's mivv cans were like that on the sound front and after a few hours riding I had to do something to quiet them down.

Re: Ebay exhaust opinions?
that was an American trend a few years back a progression on the white "firestone" sidewall treatment, sometimes it's better not to stand out
 in other words.....no
