its more likely then though that I would need to remap I suppose.
Did you need to remap/rejet yours?
I would need to drill out the rivet and replace with a nut and bolt but that should be easy.

Right here we go....suicide I know....
But cans without baffles do give bikers a bad name I have an ART can on mine but Ive added enough baffles to make it sound almost standard! I must be getting old!!!!

No, I do know what you mean. decided the baffle is staying where it is as its quite good enough as it is. Think I must be getting old too! (34 is that old?)
Even though i could probably get away with it with the neighbours as its more of a *weekend toy* and no early morning starts etc!

yeh if u aint got a noisy exhaust on an sv ur seriously missing out, definatly one of the main features of the bike is its incredible blasting roar

hooray for grunty, growling twins

Nah I'm sure I could give us all a far worse name being a tool on a standard bike than I could being sensible on a loud one

very true, there are alot of dodgy riders floatin about on the roads who have less brains than bhp, (says alot about the moped riders near where i live hahaha) however i do comlpetely love the roar of a v-twin and wud hate to see mine baffled up
each to their own though

put a carbon can co can on my sv. Had the baffle in as i don't want to attract attention to myself until i've got rid of my restriction. Word of advice is go with a hacksaw as the pipe just crumbles with the grinder, i got half way with the grinder and swapped it for a hacksaw for a better cut.

But defo a great upgrade. Just need to do the front springs now
