#1010192 ronzee (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 81 A quieter ride 9 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Hello out there. Since I've gotten this Roadstar, I have decided that I really like it over my old Intruder. But, it's kinda loud. I don't know for sure what the specific pipes are but they are Cobras. They do have baffles in them (about 14" long)but no packing around them. What would you suggest that I could do to get the decibel level a little lower? There doesn't seem to be much space between the core of the baffle and the inside of the pipe, maybe 3/8 inch?   Logged     Do or do not, there is no try.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1010196 Jlb76 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1609 Re:A quieter ride 9 Months, 3 Weeks ago   You could get different baffles for them.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1010237 Nocolorbrother (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 321 Re:A quieter ride 9 Months, 3 Weeks ago   I have Cobra speedster longs with bafflers that were hollow on mine. They were way to loud for me. I removed the ones that were in there and installed some Cobra quite bafflers. There were about $35.00 each. Still has great sound, but not that ear piercing sound. Still make plenty of noise when you crank down on it! https://www.denniskirk.com/4402774.sku?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cse&gclid=CICiq-en3tMCFUU6gQodF0MHXw&ad=45713337397   Logged     Last Edit: 2017/05/07 12:31 By Nocolorbrother.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1010646 ronzee (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 81 Re:A quieter ride 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Well, went and got some fiberglass mat and wrapped both baffles in it. Seems quieter but still not quite what I want. Guess it's gonna be either different baffles or maybe I can find an original exhaust system,,,   Logged     Do or do not, there is no try.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1010652 Father_Pobasturd (User) VENI VIDI VICI Platinum Boarder Posts: 4980 Re:A quieter ride 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   You can find an original exhaust system quite easily. I have seen them priced anywhere between free and $500.00.

Hope to sell some stuff soon and that should free up some money to get some different baffles or maybe even pipes.   Logged     Do or do not, there is no try.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1010818 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride! Moderator Posts: 22378 Re:A quieter ride 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   From The Colony,Texas roughly 127 miles north west of you. Or about 20 Miles north of Dallas. Yes those Cobras are a little loud but not as bad as my Bub Studbbies. If you get over this way let e know I have a few tricks we can try. I had a set like you have on my old VStar.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1010819 ultrastar (Moderator) We Call Her Big Red (Secretariat) 110 Big Bore Moderator Posts: 9536 Re:A quieter ride 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   ronzee wrote: Hmmm, I kinda like the free ones,, maybe there's some out there??

Darn I just took mine to the dump last weekend but Even if you can find them for free shipping is going to kill you those things are heavy   Logged     My Rides   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1010868 ronzee (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 81 Re:A quieter ride 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Yeah, sometimes wonder about how much the "shipping services" can cost. That's why I'm trying to sell one of my radio controlled sail boats here. putting it in a box big enough for the mast would cost more than I can sell it for.   Logged     Do or do not, there is no try.   The administrator has disabled public write access.
