Re: best sounding exhaust system for nc30
You can buy a "backflush kit" from automotive stores. Basically, you hook up a garden hose and the kit has fittings that divert the coolant out (sort of a circular flush). Run the hose until it's clear. It's more of a car thing really. I've never felt the need personally.

Re: best sounding exhaust system for nc30
heard so many good things about the maggot cans, but i think its just a touch impractical for me as i live on a housing estate where people are only too happy to complain.
plus i get pulled over by the old bill quite regularly due to where i live.

Re: best sounding exhaust system for nc30
The Maggot then, is not for you. I ran one on my track-bike for 2 track-days and sold it on. The sound that comes out is not nice, it's a raw, loud, bark. If you want to replicate the noise of the Maggot then just take your end-can off, it's pretty much the same.Smoky wrote:heard so many good things about the maggot cans, but i think its just a touch impractical for me as i live on a housing estate where people are only too happy to complain.

Saying that though, it's certainly well put together, and if I'm not mistaken Tyga made it as a bit of a joke and a prototype that eventually went into production due to demand, and I was one of those who 'demanded' one LOL Great kit, but just too loud.

Re: best sounding exhaust system for nc30
lol yeah theres no doubt the sound is immense.. but as far as sound is concerned im after something lower, more grumbly where you can clearly hear the pistons firing off. the sound of the NC30 is one of main reasons i hunted one down...

Re: best sounding exhaust system for nc30

Re: best sounding exhaust system for nc30
IMO, the best looks, sound and performance will be from a 2-can system, whether it's a shotgun style, or one either side. Reason being, is that you can have head head jetted to suit your needs and not just the same jets all round and you get the exclusivity of a 2-can system. They aren't everyones cup of tea, but I think this look shit hot. Royster has a nice SP style set-up and there's a real nice note off his bike (possibly THE nicest noise I've ever heard from an NC30) but that might be because of the pipework being titanium, of the diametre of the outlets, I dunno, but it's by far and away a more distinguishable sound to my twin-stack system. His TSR has a 'crack' to it, whereas mine seems to have more of a 'bark'
