12' silencer

[john r b]

Thinking of cutting my Q-stealth down 5''. Removing the S/A obviously.
Any thoughts before hand? The end cap is very heavy as well? The
Cannon R/C looks nice. Any thoughts on round vs. oval?

Cannon has a lot less girth, you can't cut away girth.

You could cut it down to where the inner perforated tube would end at the end cap, but it would be a strange looking affair. Now your exhaust outlet would be even closer to you and the oily swirl would coat both you and the bike. Much better to go with a skinny silencer that is roughly the same length as stock. This would tuck in far better.

Thanks for the input Glenn and Neil. I'm putting it back together and ordered
a Cannon from Mark should be here fri.

I can't find any part listing for the 2012-2013 other than the Stealth...

Cannon Racecraft from GoFasters. It's a good silencer, but needs a bit of work to fit proper. Worth it though.

So it is for the 2011 and earlier models, just like everything else out there?

No it's for the '12/'13. The bend is perfect and its stainless and aluminum. Front hole needs some elongation, stinger may need a few mm off, and supplied S/A looks like junk. Doesn't sound too impressive, but its no big deal and it performs very well and is much more compact.

Has anyone tried the Leo Vince silncer on the 2012? I see them listed on the Leo Vince mainpage, but not on the USA/Canada page...
They are pretty slim looking...

Almost everyone I've seen on the forum that had them didn't care for them much. To me that's why the tc2 has been around so long because its simple small and works great.
