Re-attaching cut system??
Posted: Sat May 24, 2008 11:52 am
Right, I have an MHP twin stack on my bike and it's great. Only thing is it's BL00DY LOUD!!! I have had a set of DB killers made up for it which takes the noise down a bit but, not much. At a track day at cadwell recently it failed its first noise test at 106.9 DB's and only scrapped through at 105.9 after 20 mins of raging it up and down the road and holding it at 7000 rpm instead of 8000 whilst matey wasn't looking!!
My problem is that allot of tracks, including my local one, Brands are tighter than that on noise testing and if there's any hope of me doing another one this year i'm going to have to do something about it.
I had an idea that (a) i don't know is possible and (b) don't know if its bad for the bike, but thought i'd get some opinions and suggestions on here first.
This stack uses a cut RVF system to then split off into the two cans. I was wondering if it would be possible to remove the stacks link pipes at this join and re-attach an RVF exhaust cut at the same place. I guess I would need to have some kind of collars attached to the can side of the system but don't know if it would be a good enough join or even if the rest of the system would fit onto a VFR, OR if the swapping of a twin stack back to a regular system for track days would play silly buggers with the fueling etc.
Apart from that I'm not really sure what to do. Brands is 98 DB and so is a big drop to achieve.
Anyone have an opinion on this or ideas for another solution?
Advise always appreciated guys.
