Anyone ever hear a straight through can on a GS?

[90GS500rehab]

I know it will be loud just wondering how too loud it will be. Earplug levels?

Thanks

Ive got a straight through can on my snowmobile and it is extremely loud, like a giagantic bumble bee . How do you plan on getting a straight through one for the GS? It will be very loud with a straight through can, even louder if you have it come out underneath the bike and have it aimed at the ground, then you get the echo  :lol:.

it is EAR SPLITING loud, even with helmet on...... i have done it, quickly changed my mind

Its an Erion racing exhaust that came with the bike. From what I can tell Erion only makes honda systems but the can has a chromed pipe with it that lines right up with the collector oulet. I guess I won't put it on if its going to be unbearably loud. I do have dual ducati cans but that is going to involve some welding underneath and I didn't want to spend the money at this point. Guess I will bite it and go ahead and do it.

try the cobra f1 series.  Low, loud but i don't mide riding it home late at night either.

Sound damned good 8-10k rpm.

...and all you need is a hcaksaw and wrench and 30 minutes.

F1 = $130

Brand new Ducati ST4 DUAL cans = $50 + 50 welding = $100 for dual system

F1 = $130

Brand new Ducati ST4 DUAL cans = $50 + 50 welding = $100 for dual system

where is F1 available for $130? I'd really like to know!!

Also, you have to take into account money/time to fab second exhaust can support since there isn't one on left side...

I had a D&D can slipped on stock headers on my 90 - big hole the size of my fist...well more like wrist. Surprisingly it was quieter at idle than my Yosh (GS yosh slipped on stock header)...to 3K it was quieter, 3-6K it was dead even with the yosh, and over 6K it definetly sent off car alarms ringing, you ears hurting and felt like someone have inserted a skewer into your ear and was scratching the back of your head...Well so I used it for 3 years...and never sat next to it with the thing running at 6K+...even the dyno guy was surprised at how loud it was and remarked GSXR's sound quieter with the same can on...So all I'd say is enjoy...
Cool.

funny about the D&D cans...I hear they're really loud from all sources. In one of the UK mags they were doing a long term zx-6r test and foudn out that the D&D full system is quieter without the can altogether-straight header, no muffler-than WITH the can on. And it was earsplitting loud either way. Just what my neighbors need...

Just guessed on the F1 - my friend works at an exhaust shop and I doubt he will charge me $50.
