Wolf Quiet Baffles (Del)

Post by tattie »

Going back a while now but did you ever get those Quiet baffles from ???
cant remember the posters name.
Just that I have a pair myself and was wondering if you got them, had you tried them, as I remember the poster complaning of a power loss/flat spot mid way in the rev range. I was wondering if an additional 3no holes bored through the plate might help reduce or eliminate the flat spot.

Any thoughts on this would be appreciated Del.

Cheers.

don't know what your on about mate, never seen a set of wolf cans either. but for sure, less sound = less power I'm affriad.

I'm toying with dropping a cam (stronger vavle springs and Ti caps) in me ktm duke 2, changing the front part of the headers (for a bigger bore) and performing a bafflectomy (cut and shut but with the removal of the baffle) but not sure if I would be able to stand the noise for a little more power.

Tattie,

I have a set of "decibel killers" in my scorpions. I got them from a place near Lincoln, (i'll find numbers etc on monday and post) they work realy well and do make a small difference in the power but not realy noticable. They cost £15 each and you can take them out when you feel like being noisy.
With them in the storm still has that rumble sound but not quite as raw as without them.

I'll find the number and website on monday as it's on the pc at work and let you know.

Ian

I have got a set of the decibel killers. My only worry was how they would affect the power like the poster at that time had said. i dont fancy a flat spot at 6000k when I need it. I was toying with boring 3 holes in the flat plate between the welded pipe sections to let it breathe more easily.

Cheers Iggy

I don't get any flat spots with them fitted. It does'nt rev as freely as without but negligable in the great scheme of things.

Tried them tonight after I had bored another 3 x 6mm holes between the 8mm pipes. No apparent flat spots but you can feel that it does not rev as freely.The Blue Flames are a bit more subtle and not as harsh, ie everbody walking along the street did not turn round as on other nights.


Cheers.
