I have the SS2R full system and I want my bike louder... so I was thinking of removing some or all of the fiberglass packing. will this make it louder? and will I have to rejet?

If the V&H is in good shape don't hurt it, Sell it on the forum and buy a D&D from someone...

BAH!!! not the answer I wanted there buddy ... I was even thinking of cutting the muffler... making it about 8" shorter and putting it back together. anyone done this?

ohhh yeah... and the "can" you have, does it well... drill out the end rivets cut down the internal and cut the outter skin and re- pop rivet.. i'll look around for some pics

here ya go

will I have to rejet? it's already been jetted for this exhaust but will it need to be redone? and whats the specs on that bike? I want to do something very similar to mine... swingarm and wider rear wheel, yzr tank but want to use an R6 tail and seats.

thanks for the info

I cut it down and removed all of the fiberglass packing. sounds much better now! but I'm wondering if I'll need to re-jet again. anyone know?

nobody knows if this will require a rejet? how can I find out?

see how the bike runs now?

performance seems unchanged... what should I look for?

How much of the can did you take off? And what kind of increase in volume are we talkin' here? I'm pretty interested in the mod!

sounds like you dont need to change anything then.......

if it gets really jumpy/stuttery that generally means its going lean on you........

I removed ALL of the fiberglass packing... knowing this increased the volume of air moving through the muffler I decided to cut the muffler down 9" to try to reduce the amount of air that can pass through it... hoping that my mod somehow evened out the difference in backpressure. it isn't a LOT louder but it has a much nicer tone to it now with a slight increase in volume. maybe twice as loud as before but deeper tone.

Throw up some pics when you have a chance we'd like to see the result!
