Bike exhausts?

[redsunbeam]

Whats the difference between bike exhausts and car ones? Looking at the prices of them compared to whats available for my Rover P5B i thought i might go for a pair of hyabusa ones. Not sure what they would sound like though :-/. Anyone got any experience with bike cans on cars?

Sorry, got no experience of bike exhausts , but would love to know more about your P5B when you've got chance.....

Bikes are either "baffled" or "straight through" Watch out for "baffled" they can be restrictive, but straight through are noisey

 

I have used bike cans on my Spitfire for years! no difference at all to a pair of straight through sports pipes for a car...You can usually REPACK a Micron bike silencer, BIG bonus. Use atleast two "S-T" bike cans...with a another silencer in the middle of the car.

 

If you used two BAFFLED ones, might be ok, measure the smallest bore size, double it and compare the overall area of the two bores to the pipes on the car...

Noisey is good. Whats the point of having a V8 if you can't share the sound?

;D  ;D  ;D

I went for the R1 exhaust cause of the extremely long silencer and its titanium, car exhausts this long are hard to find and titanium silencers cost a bomb, this thing cost me £40 and is mint.

im just trying to pluck up the courage to make "the cut"

i used 2 from cbr 1000's,  i made them fit onto the y piece from my wheelbarrow exhaust, i needed to shut up the exhaust a bit as it was far too loud, works nicely
