Title: Best exhaust options
Post by: mtrdrms on August 02, 2011, 03:16:32 AM
So my exhaust can tip has been leaking for a while around a couple of the bolts that secure it so today I went to take off the tip and all the bolts pulled out the threaded inserts that secure them.  My can is a bit banged up as it is so I was wondering about replacement options.  I really don't want to get anything much louder than stock but wanted to hear about what you all have had good luck with.

Thanks

Andy

Got a Carbon Can Co 3 sided can on mine without the baffle and it does bark a bit but with the baffle is pretty quiet. Works really well with the modded TOR map. The baffle can be adjusted (with a grinder) so it breaths well but not too noisey.

You are asking 'How long is a piece of string' impossible to answer,the Triumph Offroad can is as good as any,but in reality it's all down to personnel taste and money.

If your happy with the stock can and sound buy another, just about everyone on this board must have one tucked under his/her bed,mine was taken off the day of delivery to the shop,only time it was run was at the factory,must be in the house somewhere  :oops:

A friend of mine has the Triumph Off Road on his Girley. It is a little louder but not by a lot.

1. I have a stock can with only 7000 miles on it if u want.

2. Remus makes a great exhaust. Leave the baffle in and it sounds rhaspy and.mean without being loud.

Hello, I plan to install  blueflame evo3 trioval on tiger 955, is a good option? and needs new map? I will not lose performance or damage the valves?

Hey there,

No, you will not damage valves by installing an exhaust. Just ensure your valves are in spec before tuning the ecu.

Thanks for all the replies guys!  The one on my bike seems to be a part number 2200240  is this the stock can?  Just want to make sure its not the off road can before I go ahead and replace it.

Thanks Danny!  From my understanding the TOR pipe and stock pipe look the same.  How do I know which I have?

My TOR pipe has NOT FOR ROAD USE stamped on it  just behind the footrest hanger, apart from that they are identical.

Triumph made a lot of money from this mod as the only difference between the road can and the off road can was the core plug baffles were not fitted inside. the best way to see if it is an off road can is to poke a thin piece of wire into the tail pipe and if it stops about half way down against something solid you have a road can, if it goes all the way through the can you have an off road can. So by deduction, to make a road can into off road remove the core plug baffles, there are two, by drilling or hitting it with a sharpened piece of inch bar. Now you have an off road can with all the right stamps on it!     :sign13

Hmmm, love the idea.  Now, where do I get a long piece of sharp 1" bar...

REBAR and an angle grinder would be a good starting point. :D

Au contraire. On my TOR can, the main tube down the middle is at least 40mm inside diameter, as opposed to 35 on the standard pipe - I've just measured. Just looking at them, side by side, the TOR can has a much greater diameter at the outlet. From memory at fitting time, the TOR can was also somewhat lighter.

Yes I have noticed the diameter difference, it seems dependant on year of manufacture as the later off road had the larger diameter. This can be overcome by drilling the rearmost plate, first removing the end cover, (the one the tail pipe exits from) with at least 3/4" drill and if long enough the other bulkheads in the can giving the same characteristics of the TOR.

Talking of mods on cans, this pic is my 885 that died last year, most of the end plate was removed and the inner bulkhead drilled. The MOT tester thought it was perhaps a wee bit noisey but sounded great. It worked very well and equal to an aftermarket can with remapping. (Note no tail pipe at all). Obviously to get a standard can to TOR spec the mods do not have to be extreme as this.

But

hello, so well researched and I choose the dual oval stainless evo and not trioval  because people have commented that it is difficult to assemble, and over time tends to loosen and come out with the vibration. But the site Blueflame is very poor in information, have sent 2 emails and not respond, wondering if the can comes with link pipe, clamp etc.. And by the way the new logo looks like a sticker Can not? will melt with the heat? and know if the blueflame exhaust will worsen the acceleration at low rpm? midrange? I like when I'm on a hill and Accelerates and she responds immediately, it is not necessary to change lower gear Thanks
