Motorcycle Safety & Driveability: 1200 Bandit Exhaust Note, k n air filter, exhaust note


Question
Bill,

Can tell me more about your B12 exhaust?  I went to the 2 brothers site, found a sound bite and was wondering if this is similar to what you're describing.  Also, did you go with the P1 powertip thingy?

Thanks,
John

Answer
John,

No powertip thingy, just a TBR slip-on, nothing special. Sounds about like that, real growly at idle and low rpm but not overkill out on the road. Well-made can, too. Easy to install. I recommend a reject and a K&N air filter replacement as well. You should see about five more hp an better throttle response with those three changes.

If you get one you'll probably like it.
