Motorcycle Repair - Quiet exhaust for a '77 Superglide FXE


Expert: Mike Wells - 12/8/2008

Question
Firstly, thanks for all the great answers to the posts.  I fixed an electrical problem by reading past Q&A.

I have Cycle Shack (PHD-115 TO) pipes installed on my bike.  They call them muffled but the pipes are insanely loud.  Is there a flexible baffle out there that will work with turn-out pipes?  Can I whack the pipes and install slip on mufflers?  I would hate to buy new pipes but will if that is my only option.

Needing to get quiet in AZ.

Thanks, for any information, in advance.

Answer
The problem with turn  outs is getting a baffle in. They dont really go around corners and I dont know of a flexable baffle. If you want quiter pipes you would either have to change them out or you can do what you wanted, cut them and add different muffles.
Good luck and happy riding
Mike
