Removing baffle and everthing else out of muffler

[Trashthumpy]

I just took the baffle and the exhaust batting (everthing) out of my muffler will this give it a bit more power??

like i said b4, as you have taken it out, there would be less restriction... so this would have to make some difference as there is a better flow

 

[sik-pj]

yes i taken mine out. yes it does make a difference like crazzy#1 said

This is wat my bike sounds like wen is got no muffler cause it fell off (crappy chinese weld)

much the same noise as with my muffler on, because it has absolutely no restrictions.

By baffle what do you mean? If your refering to the baffle packing (usually fibreglass/woven heat proof stuff) then you shouldnt see an increase in performance. Removing the baffle will mean exhaust gasses will travel thru the perforated tube in the muffler slowing their velocity giving more back pressure.

it looks like a cone thing. and its inside the bbr look a like mufflers. and yes it has put more performance on my bike

and yes it has put more performance on my bike

Did you dyno before and after?

 

[Trashthumpy]

i dont know if its got more power now cause ive got a broken leg at the moment.

 

[sik-pj]

mjc85 no but i can feel it!!!!!

 

[noidea]

im sure thats not all your 'feeling' ;-P

got a pic of this cone you removed?

 

[sik-pj]

no sorry but now my muffler is straight though.

 

[noidea]

does it sound alot tin'ier?

 

[sik-pj]

yehh it does mate

 

[noidea]

noticed that with mine, perferred the deeper note with the 1% less performance

if your running a 4 stroke it isnt a good idea too ride without the baffle and exhuste off it creates less back pressure and can screw ur bike had porblems with mine

 

[sik-pj]

not really cause the avenger comes out with no baffle. motverts and thumpstars

sik, on our 29s that cone shaped screen is the spark arrestor. If you take it out the bike will run better but be careful where you ride, don't want to start a fire...most other bikes that I have seen do not have one anyway.
