In this episode gut the exhaust or drill out the baffles with a 44mm hole saw on Gilby the Yamaha XV250, Virago 250, V-star 250 or Route 66. To give it a much deeper rumble. We also make and install some lollipops to create a little back pressure to help it run!
I adjusted the air fuel screw 1/2 turn out to make it richer also!

I just cut my baffles out on the exhaust i feel like you dont have to add those lollipops. It really enhances the sound just leaving it open. Sounds pretty mean now!

@iRidetas 3 года назад

It depends on how many baffles you cut and the bike does run better with a bit of back pressure

@MMOhawked 6 лет назад

love your videos man, inspired me to work on my own xv250. Nice to see some smaller bikes get some love. Cheers from the US!

@iRidetas 6 лет назад

Thanks mate, glad you enjoy the vids. These are just great little bikes to work on! Im not sure why they dont get more love!

i cant believe how easy that was and the sound is awesome

@dazthejazz1640 6 лет назад

The baffles had been crudely pulled from mine by a previous owner. I removed the rest of the plate and left them open. Just richening it up a little stopped the lean popping. I honestly haven’t noticed any decrease in power, not that these have a heap anyway. Might give this a try and see if it makes a difference. As always, a nice video explained clearly . Thanks iRide.

@iRidetas 6 лет назад

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed! I found the air fuel needed 1/2 a turn to make it richer and then it ran great. The lollipops seem to take the slight tinny sound i have heard out too!

@luisvelez6145 5 лет назад

@benjaminlutz5075 9 месяцев назад

Do the lollipops serve a purpose besides making it look like it has mufflers? Or could you run them open?

@iRidetas 7 месяцев назад

You could run them open, the idea of the lollipops was a bit of back pressure.

@Kam3hameha 6 лет назад

I am so gonna do this on my 250cc virago as well. Thanks mate, ve'been searching for a low cost better sound. Really love your videos . Greetings from Greece :)

@iRidetas 6 лет назад

Thanks mate for the kind words. Go for it. It was suprisingly easy! May need to turn your air fuel out to richen it 👍👍

@TriumphRascal 6 лет назад

Excuse my ignorance, but what are "lollipops?" Sounds good for a small bike, but is this just a cheap alternative to buying a better sounding tail pie (silencer). I appreciate it sounds better than standard... Please educate me?

@iRidetas 6 лет назад

Not sure i get the question mate sorry, but thanks for leaving it. Its budget bobber build so yes its a cheap alternative to the $500ish straight pipes on the market. Thats exactly what it is. The lollipops are to provide a small amount of back pressure to help the bike run. Thanks for watching mate cheers!

@TattsForLife 6 лет назад

If I kelp the stock pipes I prob would done this cool mod also, but I made homemade straight pipes and jetted mine, This is a great video iRidetas, I dropped a like

Coolio mate. Never realised the baffles were so long, lol. Likening the lollipop idea. Was it just the idea you had to fettle. Tcrs fella ✊

@iRidetas 6 лет назад

Yeah pretty much doti. At a piont where i cant leave the bike alone!!! I was suprised how easy the baffles came out but the length doest show why thd xv is the quietest bike in the world *no data to back that statement up!!

@SubGum 6 лет назад

Very cool guide! I have a few questions before I do this mod to my XV250: What size washers / hardware did you use for your lollipops? Is there a reason you used two sets of washers per lollipop instead of just one big washer?

@iRidetas 6 лет назад

Brandon Storer thanks. Nope no real reason just used what the local hardware store had. You will find big washer big hole so needed a smaller washer at the front and back to bring it down to the m6 bolt and nut size that was all!

@slingshotnerd Год назад

Idk if you can help, but I tried doing this on my Honda Rebel 250. The baffles plates on each exhaust were successfully removed but the baffle itself is STUCK with an emphasis on the stuck in the exhaust. I tried with all my might to pull them out with pliers and they won’t budge! Do you have any advice?

@iRidetas Год назад

I used vice grips on another bike that happened to. Locked them on and went back forward, and tried to twist and I rocked the baffle back forward and out it came. I'm not sure you'd be able to get a firm enough grip with just pliers mate!

@episimoschronometris8358 3 года назад

normally back pressure should be ok, maybe carb runs poor because you also have an aftermarket filter on... ( or im just giving excuses to myshelf to not do the bolt thing... :D

@stefangiurgila7807 5 лет назад

Would you say this would work on the virago 125 model? Is there any point of doing it on the dummy pipe too? Also it was way louder than the drilled ones yes or no? Also one more. If I do this. I have to make one of those lollipops so some back pressure and adjust the fuel screelw thing you said. And if I do that would I lose power compared to stock?

@iRidetas 5 лет назад

1 Yes 2 yes as the dummy pipe is at the front the real.pipe is behind it and then they both go to a mixer underneath snake through both exhausts, so drill both. Rev the bike and you will feel exhaust from both. 3 yes 4 yes 5 no you won't loose power imo

@stefangiurgila7807 5 лет назад

@@iRidetas so is this the same loudness as the other straight pipe exhaust you bought or quieter. I want to make louder but not like straight piping. I have the holes in already but sounds like a whistle

Would this method be useful on a 125? Bike in question is a Honda Rebel 96. Also.. how much power would be lost without the lollipops?

@iRidetas 6 лет назад

Caseys Ghost im not sure mate sorry i have no experience with honda rebel but gutting the exhaust would work on a lot of bikes. The adjustment, need to jet etc. Would be different on different bikes

Are you worried at all about re-sell value from drilling the baffles out of the stock pipe? Do you think it'd still pass a rwc? Either way thanks for the video mate! Looking to do a virago build for my missus too. Shoutout from Melbourne

@iRidetas 6 лет назад

Lionel Kiernan nah mate not worried at all about resale value. Nothing on these bikes are expensive or difficult to come across to replace. Tasmania doesnt have yearly inspections so whilst it wouldnt pass not overly worried about it as my wife keeps it registered!

@claytonmcmillen3433 2 года назад

since the top exsults is a fake pipe why do you have to drill out the baffle, the bottom one the only one you have to drill out right

@iRidetas 2 года назад

Symmetry but also from memory it was a few years ago, the gasses snake through both exhausts the faux pipe is the top one to the rear but there is a smaller diameter one underneath.

thought the "top" pipe was the "dummy" pipe .. or am i wrong ?

@iRidetas 6 лет назад

Dummy pipe is the big silver one under the seat into the top can. The real one comes out the back of port down in frame then to a 2 to one then snakes through the two cans.
