guest area » 2023 1250RS Arrow exhaust

Hi all, I'd like to put an Arrow exhaust (muffler only) on my 2023 1250 RS. Problem is, according to their website they make one only for the 2019-20 model R/RS, but not later. Not sure if this due to some minor detail, or what. Can anyone shed some light on this?
I plan to register, as soon as i can figure out how..

I think you can do it. Revzilla has it and says it fits your '23 RS (same year as mine, and I've considered this):

I believe that all the end-cans fit all of the LC models 1200 1250 R and RS. The only differences are around the flapper valve cover.

Thanks for the info guys. I just ordered one from Revzilla, in titanium. It might have been a bit cheaper buying from retailers in Italy on ebay, but i'll get it sooner. Will post my impressions once i get it installed.
Which could be a while, it's cold here in NY State.. That was easy, now let me see about registering!

While we're on the subject of mufflers...

I'm thinking of replacing the stock chrome can with one of these Arrow slip-ons as well, and in the process I'd like to eliminate the passenger pegs since I never carry a passenger and those pegs are just dead weight. So I'd need a muffler hanger for the exhaust can. And some plugs for the left-side passenger peg holes. I see Twisted Throttle has an R&G hanger for $115. Are there other manufacturer options anyone knows about?

And what about hole plugs?

I have a 2023 that I'm running a 1200 Remus Black Hawk on a Black widow header . I'm the little guy in driveway . Let my friend Allen take the RS for a ride

Update: I installed the Arrow muffler some time ago, installation was hassle-free. Didn't bother to start the bike up till about a month ago. When i finally did, i got a surprise: a huge 'Service Overdue' warning plastered across the entire display, which reappears after every startup. The bike has a total of 2525 miles on it, and according to the maintenance schedule nothing is due till 6K. So i'm assuming it has something to do with the exhaust.
I took the bike for a short ride recently anyway, the sound is nice, not overly loud at all. I did notice a slight popping noise on acceleration, at a certain rpm, between 4000-4500 maybe. Has anyone else had similar issues with this exhaust on the 1250 RS? I don't think i'm doing any harm to the engine but i'd like to get it sorted out anyway. So far i've tried calling the two nearest dealers to me, LI NY & CT, neither service dept is even bothering to answer the phone. Not too reassuring! I've got a Canada tour coming up in early June & need to have the bike 100% ready. I'd hate to have to put the stock can back on!

The service reminder is based on the date as well as mileage. If it annoys you change the bikes date setting until you can get the service done.

That 4-5k range is where the shiftcam changes. Probably that you can hear.

Whoops - simulpost with Wessie
