I have a customized "stock" exhaust...so we'll start there.
For my mods to the bike I had to shorten the muffler. The muffler is "piped" the same as stock... just shorter. I hooked up a MANUAL lever to the(internal)exhaust bypass. When I open the bypass it is still REAL quite. I was expecting something similar to drag pipes. Shouldn't it be straight threw when open ??? I've seen the muffler sketch on the forum. So I guess I'm looking for an "expert" on Buells to let me know whats going on internally. So I guess I'm asking if on a stock buell with the servo hooked up... when it opens is it still "quite"????. I'm guessing that the exhaust "chamber" is still "functioning" even with the bypass open.
 
The valve changes back pressure but doesn't change the tone much at all on the stock pipe.
My Hawk, on the other hand, does have a changed tone. Deeper and louder. :D:D:D:D
