Default Dumb Exhaust Question
Anyone out there change out their stock slip-ons to something even quieter?

the only mod that will do that for you is called the Goldwing install. you end up with an 1800 cc flat 6 engine though!

Yes you can install a hoover exhuast system. It will suck like a honda and clean your garage at the same time.
