Hello
I will make later a complete post about the story what I'm doing on my RC but here is a specific topic about the exhaust :
My background is :
- I use mainly the bike on track, but want to keep it almost street legal for potential use on road.
- I HATE the noise of the stock exhaust (2015)
- I like to have the small muffler behind the engine and not a side mounted, for aesthetic reasons, for originality, and because it's less exposed in case of crash (I lay down quite often on track)
- I want better deep noise, but I'm not looking for more decibels
- To get extra horse power would be great, even if this is not the main motivation of change. At least, I don't want to loose anything but kilograms
- I don't want to buy fancy efficient great performance parts, for cost reasons, but also mainly because I have more pleasure to try and build my own thing that making a money transfer to a dealer.
- I love the theoretical approach, calculations, and engineering analyze
So I have in stock an old Termignoni muffler, from Ducati performance application, without catalyst, but with a removal db killer. It has a good shape to be integrated in the bike, with exhaust flow in ground direction.
At your point of view is there any drawback to this mounting? It will probably not be compatible with OEM belly pan, but this is not a killer.
I'm building now the connection to the original header pipe.
Most tricky part will be the bracket... but I will see...
