On Screamming Eagle One Piece Slipons, When I bought them they sounded great, now they soung like a leaking cherry bomb from the 70's... I've checked all the clamps, flanges etc.. still sound crappy... I noticed when I put them on (a year ago) they seemed to smoke a bunch.. then it went away..
I just can't get over the difference in the sound now... Really sound trashy...
Is there anything that can be done like re-rap the baffles? and what would you use? steel wool, or fiber glass.. seems the glass would just flame out...
I have the SE slip on's, if they are like mine you certainly can re-rap them. Pull the end caps off, pull the baffles out. It will take some work, I would advise you take the mufflers off the bike as you may have to hit them with a dead wieght or put them in a vise. Others have done this with them on the bike and cracked the header pipe.
