vette exhaust tip

[AngryGnome]

I pulled the can off and gutted the fat end then I welded on an exhaust tip of of a Corvette. Sounds pretty cool. Surprisingly, its not as loud as I thought it would be. I haven't had any power loss or any more popping on decel then usual. I'm gonna pull it back off and paint it this weekend.

Definetly different.

 

[buellxb9rs]

it's your bike, but it feels out of place to me.

 

[ReconLdr]

I like it.

Yeh man I think that looks awesome. Kind of looks like a GP style exhaust or something. If it has any kind of tone close to a vette I bet that sounds mean.

O lord.

Just looks odd. Maybe if you cut the pipe down, and put it under the bike maybe?

 

[Longbeard]

This looks interesting to me. How is the sound. What did you gut from the pipe. Can you post a video of the sound?

this gumbo i was eating definitely tasted better on the way in....

I recently did a full hack job on my muffler including removing all baffles and installing my own. I too went with the Corvette C6 exhaust tips but in a more modified version.

You should of sold the stock pipe and bought an aftermarket one

 

[Kid1620]

WOW that looks uuummmm.......horrible

 

[jaimz]

I'm not going to tell you it looks bad. But I am going to say that I think you should shorten it. it could look really nice.

looking at it now all I can think is GSX.

lets see a front or rear pic. It might look better than what the pictures show, considering the angle.

To each their own, but I am not a fan of the looks.

 

[stensg]

Hahaha i get it its a joke right? Sorry but that would never see my bike. To each his own i guess but i would say if you do something on the lines of dannenvance it could look clean

 

[AngryGnome]

Yeh I saw your post DanneVance and that is when I ordered my Corvette tip. I like what you did and it sounds good.

Ill try to get a video posted soon. Im not sure how well it will capture the sound but I think it sounds 100 times better then the stock.

Thanks Gnome, I appreciate the thumbs up. I agree the tips are great looking and size proportionate to the bike and the sound (gutting + new tips) really gives it a great growl without being obnoxious. Here's to future mods...!
Get a sound clip up when you get a chance.

 

[deathandtexas]

All that matters is if *you* like it.

I tried my phone and it didnt really capture the sound very good. I'm gonna look into borrowing a camera and see how that does. I really like the sound.
