Posts: 238 SF Bay Area | If you were to cut a stage 1 pipe in half you would find that the pipe has a large empty chamber, the gas just beats itself to death within the chamber. before exiting. The so called baffle is an un-louvered tube at the exit end. If you were to try to remove the so called baffle, you would need to somehow remove the end plates at both end of the "baffle", and you would end up with a large hollow tube, basically an un-tapered version of a Ness Honker, but without the louvered baffle that the Ness pipe has at the front end on the pipe. The stage 1 pipe has no actual baffle, at lest mine does not. |

| With a 2" hole saw I opened up the muffler exit. Just to find
#1 there is a baffle with "lots" of little holes in it. Guessing a hundred
#2 lots a fiberglass packing
#3 the baffle will not come out cause there is a flange on the inlet end to keep the baffle centered in the muffler.
#4 dam now I don't know what to do

Posts: 444 Bay of Gigs, WA | Anyone been in the S1L2's? I stuck a thing up my exhaust pipe and it went quite a ways, but did seem to hit a stop up there somewhere. I thought maybe there is a panel or plug or something and I could cut it off if I pulled the whole thing out (which I've not done yet because, well, it's nice out and I wanna ride, not wrench) which would leave a long tube open on both ends, also along the lines of the big Honkers. |
