SeanC7 Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 What's up guys, recently got a bike with some CPIs the mufflers are in bad shape. Can I just replace with any aftermarket muffler? If so any suggestions? Do they do anything other than sound? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanC7 Posted June 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 you can find some.. whats wrong with them? post some pics. Wish I could, bikes motors getting cracked at the shop, they are just ugly, also, smoke comes out before the actual end because it's not fully screwed in, they used some sort of gunk to seal it I guess.Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pp13bnos Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 If you want to quite the pipes down, I would suggest Cascade silencers. Now, I have no idea if the new cascade owners are producing them, but when Chris and Tim owned it, they made some top quality stuff. I run their silencers (big bore though) on my 521, and love them.

Ayesully810 Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 (edited) hes not concerned with Db's i wouldnt waste money on those unless your riding in an area that has noise restrictions. Your silencers are fine probably. You could easily polish those things up nice, repack the silencers, and seal the stingers to the silencers with o rings like they are suppose to be so you get a good seal and possible replace the rivets at the end where the stinger connects. if you wanna polish your silencers, get some 1500, 1000, 800 wet dry sand paper, start with the 800 and finish with 1500, then polish them with 00 steel whool and polish with some mothers and a rag, they will look real nice, even nicer the more time you put into each step Edited June 29, 2018 by Ayesully810 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk its so easy, all it takes is some effort and reading. if you dont want to learn to do something as simple as repack a silencers plan to spend stupid amount of money on this thing then, because when something happens (it will) your going to pay 10 fold for a remedial task. just my 2 cent. my advice, learn that machine inside and out in less than a year ,if you want to, it will pay off plus its fun Edited June 29, 2018 by Ayesully810 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleeper06 Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Here’s an idea, call CPI and get new ones. No packing, no polishing, no fuss. I just put a set on a customer bike and used threebond 1211 to seal between stingers n silencer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the engine is taken care of i can do the rest, i hope lolSent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickedcarbine Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 🤔 $30 mechanic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanC7 Posted June 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 $30 mechanic. The bikes already under the knife, I cant imagine he will tack on much more to do this. This guy is backed up two weeks on bikes, I went to his shop must have counted 9 banshees...real deal, regular prices cost me 350 just to crack the engine, check the port job, etc +he has a dynoSent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayesully810 Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 350 to take apart the engine ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
