Epyon007 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 I'll be the jerk that resurrects this thread. How loud are the Yoshimura RS3 cans? I have a D&D right now and its a tad too loud. They are fine on my RC51 but too much to ride everyday to work on and tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wera803 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Mine has a carbon fiber Micron low mount on it. The Beetle Bags makes it hard to see, although you can hear it just fine. My girlfriend's with a carbon fiber D&D. The previous owner made the high mount connection pipe. This pipe sounds way better than I thought it would. I had only heard stainless steel D&D's in the past and I thought they were obnoxious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epyon007 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 OMG more pics of the high mount please!!! I like the look of the pipe and thought about making it high mount and thought it would look sweet. If I could have mid pipes made so I could convert it back to low mount that would be awesome for traveling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll pile on and ante up one more, tho no bags on my 5th gen . . . This is a 2 Bros - long out of production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer dgordon Posted April 13, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted April 13, 2016 RVFR, that is a really tight and sweet 5th gen. Staintune for the win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How loud is kinda subjective, but if you dig i know i posted some db #s on my yoshi that you might be able to compare. If the d&d has lot of miles have you tried to repack? IMO glass packing seems quieter that steel wool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer SCguy Posted April 13, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted April 13, 2016 My Yoshi is not very loud. It's hard to tell from a video, but here it is: https://youtu.be/SwbbzUcwevE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer vfr350 Posted April 14, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted April 14, 2016 so here is what i measured using industry standards, 85 db @idle about 93 db @3500 no load for a yoshi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drewski Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Anyone fitted a Supertrapp silencer.....now apparently called an "Extremeblaster Xb08"? I noticed this vid the other day and, while it's not the prettiest pipe, it does sound nice IMO. If I can find a cheap enough pre-owned example, I may give it a shot:- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer JZH Posted April 28, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted April 28, 2016 It's not very common, in fact I don't think I've ever seen or heard of anyone running a Supertrapp on a VFR800 before. Doesn't sound too raspy, either. I used to have a set of four Supertrapps trying to quiet down the 327 Chevy in my old Porsche 914. They helped, but certainly "quiet" was never going to happen...

Member Contributer carlgustav Posted April 28, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted April 28, 2016 Actually, I've been running a 4" short Supertrapp for many years. Listen from about 1:30 on. Now running the Xtremeblaster, which is not manufactured by Supertrapp. Supertrapp owns Jardine, FPs, others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellindustries Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 I remain very happy with my Delkevic can. I've had it over 6 months now. Used in all weather, every day. No signs of rust or tarnishing. Welding has held perfectly, carbon fibre as new. I keep it all pretty clean anyway. It's throaty, but not so loud as to annoy the neighbours before 9am when i go to work. But it IS loud enough to make pedestrians look (so i don't spread them across the road) and is great for quick revs at the lights to get drivers looking up from their phones so *I* don't get spread across the road. I don't have the baffle/DB killer in, but the sound is gentle but throaty under 4k revs, aggressive between 5 and 7, and down-right brutal over that. Perfect. I can HIGHLY recommend the Delkevic 350mm Carbon high-mount. Part number: KIT2668 (in case the link fails as the site is a bit slow) - Come with can, link pipe, bracket and sealant. I chose to make my own bracket which was much further back than the supplied item as it was practically sitting on the link pipe, and didn't inspire confidence that i'd keep it on the bike.

Throttlestop Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Sadly, I no longer have my much-loved Ol' Blue. Sold to a very happy gentleman, after I met an accident on the Ducati that led to a painful, year-long re-hab program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
