Gobsheen Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Hi,I've put an IXIL Super Xtrem exhaust on my ER6-N. It came with 2 baffles, one quieter than the other. So, I've 3 options. The quiet one (right in pic) is, well, quiet and boring but would keep any mot tester happy.The louder baffle is pretty good but could do with a bit more volume.No baffle sounds good but I'd use ear plugs if I was going any distance. Police get upset at no baffle!I was thinking of drilling extra holes in the louder baffle and cutting off the closed end. Is that going to work or am I just going to wreck the baffle?

rennie Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Hello and Welcome personally I'd go with the quieter baffle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Welcome to TMBF mate. .....pop over to the Newbies section and introduce yourself to the guys when you can. ...... Maybe a few extra holes, but I wouldn't cut the end off......otherwise it'll be just the same as no baffles..... Just be careful with Modding it, as you could mess up the fuelling.....and the bike could actually lose performance. ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobsheen Posted October 27, 2017 Author Share Posted October 27, 2017 Ok, thanks. The bike runs well on either baffle or no baffle so I'm happy enough that modding shouldn't cause a problem with the engine.......I think......I hope!

Joeman Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Left mine out completely.. Always wear earplugs anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exportmanuk Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Great to have a loud exhaust sometimes but as someone who is often following other riders. Even with ear plugs in it is not entertaining to be behind someone with a very loud exhaust for any length of time. You're more likely to attract unwanted attention and from my experience the ER6 works well with the stock exhaust ( though probably better headers are available my Kawasaki one snapped)I tried a couple of after market cans and found more noise but less performance and used more fuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megawatt Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Drill more holes in the loud one, and /or weld on a length of perforated tube. Save the quiet one for Mot's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westbeef Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 No baffle in mine and it’s a big bore and it’s fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobsheen Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 Job done! Not pretty but works and no one is ever going to see it anyway. Much happier now. Not annoyingly loud when riding but sounds good. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
