Author Message   Chuchor19 Posted on Wednesday, July 06, 2016 - 12:37 pm:        Hello everyone, so I recently purchased a buell 1125r with a barker exhaust. I love how loud it is, but I have neighbors who don't love it as much. Especially when I leave to work at 4 am. Any suggstions other than switching back to stock? I'd love it if I can get something that sounds more like a regular street bike, but all those exhausts seem to be 500 and up. Eventually I'd like one, but it seems pricey with the money I just spent on the bike. Any cheap solutions or cheap exhausts I can replace it with?   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, July 06, 2016 - 12:53 pm:        The only aftermarket exhaust I've heard that wasn't unreasonably loud is the Dean Adams MT-1, which is a modified version of the stock exhaust   Dennis_c Posted on Wednesday, July 06, 2016 - 01:04 pm:        You can get a quiet core for a Barker size 1" 1 1/2" 1 5/8" also is the packing good in the Barker?   Chuchor19 Posted on Wednesday, July 06, 2016 - 02:14 pm:        Do you think the quiet core will make a considerable difference? Sorry, I'm new to the bike thing in general. Whats packing in bike jargon? Lol   Mrred7 Posted on Wednesday, July 06, 2016 - 02:34 pm:        Here is a cheap fix: I have an HMF can, which is loud also. If i am riding in late at night or early in the morning, i just ride like an old lady and keep the RPM's under 3k or even coast in neutral to my driveway. That has been working for me the last 6+ years. Just my 2 cents!   Dannybuell Posted on Wednesday, July 06, 2016 - 03:55 pm:        i have the small quiet core, it helps a lot.   Chuchor19 Posted on Wednesday, July 06, 2016 - 03:59 pm:        It's too loud just idleing lol its super loud. Thanks dannybuell. I'll try a quiet core and see what happens. Thanks to all of you guys.   Figorvonbuellingham Posted on Wednesday, July 06, 2016 - 06:12 pm:        Buy your neighbors some earplugs. Mu neighbors are dickheads so I enjoy a loud exhaust.   Willmrx Posted on Wednesday, July 06, 2016 - 07:16 pm:        Here are some links that my help answer your question. https://barkersexhaust.com/products/barkers-exhaus t-replacement-pillow https://barkersexhaust.com/collections/parts/produ cts/barkers-exhaust-quiet-core https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OosENy9f-OE   Chuchor19 Posted on Wednesday, July 06, 2016 - 09:42 pm:        Thanks again. I'm going with the cheap and easy quiet core which I just ordered. When I put it on I'll check if It needs new packing. Thanks once more. You guys are great!   Jeepinbueller Posted on Thursday, July 07, 2016 - 08:58 am:        When I had my Barkers the quiet core made a good dent in that raspy lobe——I bet it'll work out well for your neighbors. Once the can gets 50% or so of the packing blown out, though... she gets reeeeeal loud. I would buy a repack kit just for when you need to do it.
