CCC's
 

Leave them out, its sounds so much better, and cars move out of the way a lot sooner, I have had mine out since December and ride every day, not had a problem with the police yet, and have been right behind a police bike for about three miles, he did the looking in the wing mirror to see what was behind him :-) but never pulled me.

If anyone from the south west ever get the chance to ride through Cheddar Gorge with CCC's take the baffles out as its sounds so good.

so how much extra power does removing them give??

Trouble removing baffles.
 

Hello guys i did try today to remove baffles from my Carbon Cans , i drilled the rivets and tried to pull them out but they seem to be stuck... any advice ? Is there a possibility that mines are not removable ?

I had trouble removing my baffles after I put them back in when we went touring with the Mrs. I had to bash them quite hard to get them in, so removing them was almost impossible. I found the easiest way was to remove the can and slide a wooden pole (I used a pick axe handle which was small enough to slide in, but larger than the baffle) in from the other end of the baffle and hit the can downwards so the pole pushed the baffle up and out.

I hope this makes sense, it's hard to describe what I did. Here's a picture....

I have the same problem with my termignoni exhausts.The baffles are internal and the are not visible from outside they look like full racing.I tried to pull them out but its very hard if any idea here how to put them out would be appreciated or i will contact yamaha which brings them to greece how to put them out

I just get a very long pointy nose pilers and grip onto the baffle and wiggley it (move it about) to loosen it and it then slides out.

I removed mine today. Holy christ what a sound. You will get a permanent hearing disorder riding this bike afterwards. Use hearing protection :toothy2:
My baffels is going back on tomorrow.

Popped out my bafflers 2day, and tbh i can't really tell the difference, it sounds wicked, a bit deeper when closing the throttle but overall, not to much difference, also is there any more power when taking em out?

One of my rivets came out of my baffles and i lost it some where so i removed the other one and my god it sounds good!

i havent had an issue with the police yet *touch wood* but if you dont ride like a t*** then they dont realy seem to mind!

as for power my bike with them in could reach 104mph easily with me sat up right! now i have to get nice and low to the bike to go that fast. i can pull about 91 happilly with the baffles out! dont know if thats because im restriced or not though! :(

And as keithblade says loud pipes do make cars move etc, but dont take that for granted, ive had a few where cars drivers must have been blind and deaf!!!

happy riding!

What other mod to the stock exhaust ????
 

Hi,
I had a '05 WR450F wich I modified its stock exhaust with good results.
Mainly I cut off two of the inner baffles and the spark arrester.
I wander if is it posible to do the same with the XTR.
Thanks.
