Another Exhaust Question
#11
OK for starters the bike 2007 had Rush tru duals on it when I purchased it. The stock cans will not work as the left stock muffler is for show not a truly functional muffler, besides stock ain't exactly quiet. I have never seen a bike with V&H or Rush mufflers that I would consider Quiet.
If a 1800cc gold wing or even a 6.0 ltr truck engine can run down the road without having to listen to the popping sound of a engine, I am sure a little ol 96 CI engine can be quietened down.

Secondly, you simply won't find anything commercially available that will be quieter than stock. If the MoCo spend millions on emissions testing to suit Global markets, you ain't got a chance!!
It's not simply exhaust sound, it's a combination of induction roar from a freer flowing air filter, tyre noise and any modifications to mufflers and pipes.
Sadly, I think your options are thus:
~ Return all induction / exhaust components back to factory spec, or
~ Try wearing in-ear plugs & a good over ear helmet, or
~ Chop the bike in for a Goldwing.
Good Luck!!

I think the left muffler is a truly functional muffler, just more restricted, right? I know mine had exhaust comming out of it before I took the stockers off. Wouldn't that serve to make it quieter? Maybe you should look for 2 left stock mufflers. Correct me if I'm wrong but just sayin.

Oh yeah, I think I remember that now. I still have em but I'm not gonna dig em out to look. Now I know how to tell which one is which if I ever want to put the bike back to stock, you know, like if I was gonna sell or trade.
