When I installed my 351 kit I was running a FSR header with a modified KLX 300 muffler. Sounded great. But I wanted to try the stock exhaust figuring that I had a significant increase in power already so I could loose a bit to get a bit more stealth and quiet. When I first ran the stock muffler it was like, "Ahhh - quiet!" I hadn't realized how intrusive the the extra noise was especially at cruising speed. Did I loose some power? Yeah, a bit. But for everyday riding around I don't really notice it. Trading that 1.5 hp for a more relaxing ride was worth it. That exhaust growl was kind of bad *** but I don't really need to announce my arrival from a half a mile away. Although - it was bad ***.

 

Cool, this community has its own set of verbs! What about "I am going to deej my bike"

 

"Deejing" is an action that requires detergent, water, polish, rags, and elbow grease.

 

....and while he's wearing a hair net and latex gloves.

 

I made mine out of a KFX400 stock exhaust cap by cutting it down with with an angle grider and riveting it in place.

 

someone also mentioned buying a tip from HMF or FMF.

 

aren't those oval cans though ?

 

I think my HMF can is slightly oval, but the tip is definitely round. It sets into a recessed portion of the can and can spin around to any position.
