Description

What can I do to add some sound and performance to my ride without adding an air intake and remapping the EFI?
Let’s look at a great starting point, the slip-on muffler. It’s easy and cost conscious to remove your stock mufflers and add a performance based muffler.

This Cobra mufflers come with 3-inch cores encased in proprietary Cobra sound tuning materials with specific acoustical dampening and thermal insulation properties. The basso profondo notes are made possible because of class-leading resonance absorption and prevention.

The frequency and location of the perforation patterns in the high-flo cores creates significant sound scattering in the mid frequencies, which helps to enhance the low frequency tones. The high-flo core itself is a massive 3-inches in diameter which gives the muffler an aggressive look without the objectionable sound levels.

All Cobra exhausts and slip-on mufflers are made in the U.S. and come with a limited lifetime warranty that even covers discoloration. They use precision laser cut mounting brackets and stainless steel clamps to mount to the stock headpipes or to Cobra’s PowerPort Dual headpipes.

Cobra even has sound files for all their exhaust.

    It would be nice if we could hear the pipes.

Hi, I'm Bob LaRosa welcome to fix my hog. We've partnered up with Cobra. I wanna take a look at slip-on mufflers. This is the starting point to performance modifications on your motorcycle. It is the way I prefer to begin When I'm looking for a little bit of performance game and a little more audible output or sound out of the motorcycle. The slip-on muffler itself is exactly that you gonna retain the factory head pipe. You gonna unbolt the factory muffler and install a beautifully chrome-plated highly manufactured highly engineered slip-on muffler assembly. As you can see the baffles themselves are designed for performance gains and also for a nice audible base. This slip-on mufflers perform flawlessly when you need them. When you're not in the throttle heavy they are fairly quiet they don't have a tendency to attract attention when it's not necessary. When it comes to slip on mufflers there's an array of designs and styles available from Cobra. Do your research, make sure the application fits your model but more importantly fits your needs. If you want a little more low-end torque a little more horsepower. This race pro four and a half inch is the way to go. These are bagger pipes obviously their mufflers for a dresser One on each side. Cobra does offer mufflers or slip-on for a broad range of motorcycle applications. Do your homework, do your research again If you see a product you're interested in try and find it on someone else's typical motorcycle, listen to it Are you happy with the audible output? The sound increase ask the owner, how was installation? Was it easy to do? Is it something I can do myself? And most importantly, always keep in mind When you do a slip-on you typically don't need to address any of the other control units, air intake, or ECM remapping or replacing just because you replaced the slip on muffler. It's a nice entry level way to gain some sound and gain a little performance increase.
