so i just finished my mini-stroked Corsa build and it's alive but REAL loud. it sounds like an 80cc dirtbike with the PG long on it. Has anyone found a way to muffel the muffler or add a silencer or something along those lines?

a ddx airbox if you can find one, i believe you can open up the factory airbox intake but i have only done it on a 72cc setup.

in certain places its safer to be heard, the idiots that can't drive cars can hear you, run a pod filter as the exhaust runs quiet, my aero runs live & loud

Greetings:

The "Loud Pipes Save Lives" argument has been beaten to death on every motorcycle website since the dawn of Internal Combustion. Statistically disproven repeatedly, it lingers on.

Aside from the truly Hearing Impaired drivers out there, the liklihood of being heard in time to avoid a collision when one ear is stuck on a cellphone and the other is being bombarded by Fifty Cent through a rack of 18" speakers is slim.

Smart riding saves lives. Loud pipes only get people annoyed enough to complain to the Authorities. See Denver Post, autumn 2008. Noise ordinances forbidding ALL non-stock exhausts within City Limits.
