For me, its not about getting quieter, it's about removing reversion and getting my Torque back. People weren't joking when they said some aftermarket exhaust changes your powerband. Sure my HP/Torque probably is same, but you REALLY feel it slack on the low-midrange RPM without Baffles. I popped one in my bike and boom, she rode smoother than ever and got a richer tone.

Loud pipes are what is getting a lot of really good motorcycle riding roads, closed off to motorcycles throughout Europe. Spain had banned bikers from some of the best mountain roads in that country, and it is all down to loud exhausts.

@thehippiedog5956 Год назад

So technically, the term back pressure is wrong but also right! A small obstruction that does not increase back pressure will produce more torque and horsepower in mid and high rpm ranges on any 4 cycle engine. The Reason? Valve overlap. The rushing gases exiting the pipe keep the exhaust moving at high speed thus actually sucking more fuel and air into the motor with less spent air remaining in the cylinder. We have used lollypops many times in the past and welded simple washers into pipes to improve takeoff speed. Great for mid range power on the street. The great side effect is it runs both cooler and quieter when you want or need it to 🙂

@LowlyDegenerate 10 месяцев назад

Thank. You. Back pressure is a byproduct produced by the bends and such in the exhaust system, which are needed to aid in exhaust gas scavenging as you said. Back pressure isn't a "needed" thing like we've heard from so many people over the years. It's just an unavoidable byproduct of any exhaust system because physics is a thing that exists. You ideally want an exhaust that scavenges the most gas with the least amount of back pressure possible at whatever rpm range you need

@eduardom3209 8 месяцев назад

Did you solder the washers in the end of the mufler or in the start of the pipe?

@Baaconstrip 3 года назад

Hey guys, great video! I have a question is it bad if you wrap a baffle TOO much ? I did mine to reduce noise as much as possible, but the air has to pass through the wool now, there is no clear path for the air too take. Could it cause too much backpressure ?

@DennisKirk 3 года назад

yep there can be to much so look out for stuff like this The classic symptoms of too much backpressure include things like a lack of high speed power, poor fuel economy and even overheating. Anything that backs up exhaust pressure into the engine will also back up heat.

@LowlyDegenerate 10 месяцев назад

You're technically not wrong. Basically a baffle is a muffler, just without a case. All three of the designs show here are pretty much what glasspack mufflers for cars have looked like in the inside throughout the years. The last one with louvers inside is very old school, like 50's and 60's style, while the one with fiberglass around it is essentially the same design as a straight through muffler you can buy today from Magnaflow or Borla. The middle one looks like the inside of a cheap homemade suppressor. While that design doesn't work very well for that application, it works pretty well for a muffler baffle insert
