Need Some Rumble
« on: July 01, 2009, 11:52:46 AM »

Simple question, i want to make my SERG louder as it does in my opinion sound to restricted. What is the least expensive method?, and can it be done without any remapping of the fuel system?? Looking for something cheap and simple, if thats possible? Thanks.

Thanks for the reponse, so what is the difference between using the fulsac method to obtain some rumble, and going with some aftermarket slip on's?? ( other than the obvious price ).

About $200-$500... IF you are inclined to do it yourself. I'm a mediocre mechanic AT BEST and I did my own.

Go will the fullsac cores.  I just yesterday installed mine, and with the proper tools, I think it is a job that anyone with any mechanical ability can pull off.  Just be careful to not get carried away grinding on the welds where the meet the inner pipe, the metal is very thin there.  Be sure and get carbide burrs to grind with.  I installed just the 2" fullsacs cores for my SERG and am well pleased with the "rumble".  The Fullsac people are great to deal with.  Great products, reasonable prices, and quality information.  Just follow the instructions on the link above, or the ones that come with the cores.

So fulsacs are my cheapest route to take to obtain some rumble, but if i decide to go with something like Reinhart slip on's (which i realize cost more ) is there  remapping involved ??? or, are they just bolt on and enjoy?? I know earlier bikes required remapping with exhaust modifications, not sure what the 09 SERG requires??, Thanks

it all depends on what else you do

if you leave the air cleaner stone stock you "probably" are ok

if it runs too hot then there is trouble and you may need ssert or tts

what it boils down to is that some are too hot stock - and some are ok.. if yours is ok - then just mufflers is probably ok

if yours is too hot then mufflers will make it worse

the o2 sensors can accommodate "some" modifications

remember that any modification will void the warranty - dealers might fix it anyway - but be warned that they can and occasionally do say - "its modified so you pay"

I've seen some SERG's with Reinhardts and in my opinion they look too small in the bags. They are only 3 1/2" opposed to the 4" stock mufflers.
I like the Reinhardt pipes and emailed them to ask if they would be coming out with a 4" muffler and never received a response so I guess that means no. Cobra makes a 4" round muffler also.

If you want a Awesome rumble and sound go with the Connie Faas Racing Slip-On's. I have them on my 08 SEUC. With the Heavy Breather intake and those Slip-On's the bike sounds awesome. I can never slip -in to an event witout being heard.

Look at the BUB 7 Stealth mufflers.  4" and not too loud but have a nice mellow rumble.  I just installed them on my SERK.

Vance & Hines basic slip on's,   they sound great!  not so loud that you can't hear the radio, and they are only about $340.00 Very easy to install!   Joeymaq :pineapple:
