See I like the GP look, this is the second video of the install but I attached my go pro into the back foot peg when I was riding. Sounds amazing going a full chat. Go to around the 22-26 minute mark :)

So i went and did it. I have got myself a different exhaust for my MT. Now I had a Akra fitted before which was with the bike when i got it and even though it looked great but it did my right ear no favors. With the original baffle in it was too quiet and out it was far to loud for me on the...
I fitted a Motad to replace a Akra TI, don't know why but the bike felt better and the sound in my opinion is better then the ti. Could be all in my head but i don't care if i think it haha. And for the price you can't go wrong. If any of you guys want a Motad exhaust i did ring them saying...
I test rid one last Saturday, great bike, handles a dream and is quick but i felt it was missing something. Sounds a bit daft but the 09 you have to grab it by the scruff of the neck to keep it in line when you really want to ride it. One of my older mates compared it to a modern take an a RD400...
Just checking if having after market levers would void the warranty on my MT. Just mine has developed a cam chain rattle and is going in next week to get it sorted. Just want to check if I should change the levers back to stock. Thanks
Yeah thats pretty much it, i also stuck a chamfer between the step, you will find that it will but up against a weld within the exhaust exhaust which helps keep the gases from leaking past as much.
62.5mm outer flange for the exit, this is 40mm in length and 54mm ID for the inner flange with a 1mm wall thickness if i recall. haha like i say i will hunt the drawings out and PM you. Just double check your exhaust measurements as i have found out everyone's exhaust seems to be slightly...
Sorry for not replying to this thread in a while, mixture of work and the wife being in hospital has kinda taken up a far bit of my time but things have settled down now :)
First off how did everyone find there baffles, i have had a few positive PM's and looking of this thread a few on here as...
also forgot to mention there is a weld on the inside of the exhaust which buts up against the larger flare of the baffle. If you stick it in the wrong way the baffle will stop when it hits that which is around half way, turn it around should go all the way until it hits the inner flange :)
Yeah it goes in small end first because the small tube fits within the flange within the exhaust. The sizing is a pain but i have found different exhausts have slightly different diameters. Once the flaring tool is set its accurate to 0.1mm but seems the Akra has bigger tolerance. But a bit of...
Not a problem Michael, should stop your ears from bleeding :P. Once you fit it you will have to get back to me with what you think and thats goes for everyone :)
Right baffles have been sent after I brought the local post office to a stand still. You all should get them in the next few days. Rip I'm going to have a go at making a baffle for you when i get a free minute this week. Also for the overseas buyers i was going to ask today but after all the...
No it's not as deep by any means but still has a nice base note, unbaffled this exhaust is just way to loud in my mind. Really the baffles isn't a baffle as such it's more of a gas deflector which isn't meant to be removed. Without it the gases basically only enter one of the 3 chambers within...
Rip i shall have to see if i can squeeze another baffle out of the last bit of tube i have, i think you might be in luck though but i will get back to you on that. As for sound i did put a video up on this thread but i have put the link below:

Right finally got the baffles completed, tried in my exhaust outlet they were fine. Tried them on a mates and they were a bit tight, guess there must be some difference in tolerances between each exhaust batch. However i went around it with some course wet and dry and that shorted it out, so if...
lol yeah the fun, but redesigning and fixing a car shredder is an up. More so when you see full cars turned into small bits :D. But i am back up north, i have the new pipe so will finish the baffles tomorrow and send them out Monday night :)
