Title: Looking for an aftermarket exhaust that will fit an 09 gs500f
Post by: Flyboysioux on May 08, 2012, 09:24:39 AM
I'm just lookin for some thing not too pricey but that will sound better than the stock exhaust for an 09 gs500f I don't like how quiet this bike is and don't want to get hit from people not being able to hear me. Any suggestions or used buys?

Exhaust noise travels rearward, that whole loud pipes save lives thing is a myth. A headlight modulator will save your life if you want to be seen on the roads.

I hear people with loud exhausts coming at me all the time. The only time I really don't is when I'm blasting down the highway due to all the wind noise.

On the other side though, everybody's exhaust that I do hear coming at me is so obnoxiously loud that it pisses me off since they're giving other sport bike riders a bad name.
