RE: Akrapovic exhaust help please? - 2

Zitat von trippyowl im Beitrag #14

So here's new update, i recently bought 2018 1200RS and added the akrapovic exhaust and asked the dealer to remove baffles. But yesterday I found out that he did install the exhaust but couldn't remove the baffles. And technician gave me an excuse that for this particular model we cannot remove baffles.
Is the pipe loud enough without removing baffles? or should i remove them myself?

In California if a shop removes the baffles or otherwise modifies a manufacturer-approved muffler, or installs a non-government approved muffler, they can be fined up to $10K per occurrence and could loose their vehicle retail selling license. So they will not take that chance and fool with intake or exhaust systems. But the vehicle owner can do whatever they want and likely get away with it. Go figure?
