Featured The Wife Is Not A Happy Bunny!

The pink one obviously! Im not riding the other one, it looks scary!

 

Was it difficult to take the baffle out Andrew ? And would it be possible to put it back in place again if it's too loud ?[/QUOTE]
Hi mate, it wasnt too bad. Would of been alot easier if i took the carbon cap of and re riveted it bit i didnt have any rivets.

So i used a die grinder and very very carefully took the metal down a bit and kept wiggling with the end of a hammer until the weld broke.

If you want the baffle to be re used then you definitely need to take the carbon end cap off and drill a hole through both bits so you can put a bolt in. You cant do this if the cap is left on.

There is a decent post on here already about removing the cap and doing it that way. Hope this helps!

 

Too loud??? Eh?
I don’t understand [/QUOTE]
To be honest its quieter than the mivv can i had without the baffle. I think it sounds lovely! Heard one at the weekend with the baffle in and made the decision that it must go! Just sounds incredible now. How a triple should sound!

 

Haha I was waiting for this, I stay in a complex mate, lots of senior citizens who would notice the "subtle " change in tone. Mates at the local gathering spot nagging me every weekend to take it out [/QUOTE]
They can notice all they want. But on the other hand if its loud enough you cant hear them complaining! get it done mate you wont regret it!

 

Cheers Andrew, I think I've seen that post but the pictures of the weld on the can wasn't clear. My MT09 (also a triple) had the Akropovic Titanium system on and it was very loud especially under load without the baffle, I machined the pipes on the baffle down a bit and re installed it. It was perfect then. I will take a closer look at the Arrow some time and maybe see what it's like. Thanks for the reply![/QUOTE]
Basically as your looking at the end of the can, you just have to take about 2mm off then give it a good old fashoined wiggle. It would be hard to take a pic to see the weld broken clearly but as i said if you have the means and the tools to take the end cap off its a hell of a lot simpler to do.
