I have an FMF Powercore 4 on my 88, and to put it simple, its nice and all, and I don't think its obnoxiously loud, but my buddies are bitching about it being too loud for the sidewalks we rip around on.
I took the sleeve off of the can tonight and removed the black charred up packing and plan on buying some new packing from Cycle Gear tomorrow, but before I put it back together, I was wondering if anyone in here has any homemade ideas for silencing methods.
I was thinking about maybe buying some wire mesh and jamming it into the baffle, or maybe building a mesh tube that has some bends in it, instead of being straight....
Anyone got any ideas? I really don't want to have to put a stock pipe back on because i have the full stage 3 kit, carb., race head, and jet kit on my bike.
