My pipes are too loud. Recommend something else.

Elegant solution--never seen it before. I may give it a try. Looks like you went about an inch plus into the pipe upstream of the muffler. And no challenges with backpressure? I'm wondering if it will freak out my ECM when closed. I probably wouldn't keep it closed all the time. Thanks again
OldArmy,
They really simple....Just 1" washers welded on a 1/4" bolt stem. You could use larger washers for more "baffle" if you wanted to. I cut a slot in the bottom of the stem so I could tell which way they were turned in the pipe and turn them with a screwdriver to adjust them.

I have a 2005 RKC with V&H true duals and Oval Slipons. The bike sounds awesome, but I;m getting tired of them. I was thinking about changing the slip ons to something more low-level deep rumble.
I want a pipe louder and deeper then the original factory pipes, but not as loud as the V&H Ovals.
Any suggestions?

Rodeo will argue against it, but I wonder if the Monster Ovals would be a good compromise for you? Not as loud or raspy as the Oval Slip-Ons, but still more sound than stock.
The SE Street Performance Mufflers (64985) are excellent as well - a little quieter than the Monster Ovals, but still more sound than stock.
BTW Rodeo - I suspected we were kindred spirits all along - one of my early bikes was a 305 Scrambler as well! What great memories that picture brings!

Supertrapp SE are the best bang for the buck. These slip ons are only 3db louder than stock and in a test in American Iron they outperformed nearly every other set of slip ons. I think there was one set that had like .1 more peak HP but had less torque. These slip ons perform and give you that deep tone that is just a little more than stock.
