Default Seventy-two noisy engine
Hello everyone and a good year 2022

Is it normal for the engine to make this noise? It's my first seventy-two and it comes with kesstech valve exhausts

Sounds like a Sportster to me. I think you're good to go!

I see the Kesstech exhaust can produce three different sounds. But, I can't see any performance data on whether they help boost horsepower. Also, I could not find any retail prices for the system.

That "sewing machine" noise from the top end is pretty typical. You can quiet it down with some Rocker Lockers that you can see at this LINK
