I wonder what one of these  would sound like on our Savage?

Does it make the bike go faster or more economically? or is it solely for sound effects?

Don't know mate, but it sure sounds cool on that 6 cylinder Honda. Prob wouldnt have the same effect on our 1 cylinder babies. :-?

Pure looks, as it goes down into one before splitting back to three.   However, it is probably less restrictive than stock, but that is the baffles, not the number of pipes.

I see what you mean. The sound is already mixed and created from the head to the muffler connection. So your saying it would sound the same regardless of the tail pipe.
It must make some difference surely. I have since utubed the new 2013 Gold Wing with just 2 straight pipes and sounds completely diferent.
This is what the same bike sounds like with stock mufflers.

It is hard to get a good idea of the sound from a recording.  I thought a heard a car alarm going off in the audio.....which makes me think the pipes might be a bit too LOUD if they set off car alarms!!

I had loud empty pipe last season but for my neighbors sake since I leave early in the morning I put it a long fin with a baffle in there. I got some back pressure back but now it's almost too quiet.

I can't view youtube videos at work so I can't even see what you guys are talking about.

3 muffs for one cylinder,... there's quite a weight penalty for our putt...

Probably have to buy a pair... 6 on one side...
The bike will fall over... ;D...

Yes mate very true. What if they were made of a lighter material? Maybe a little shorter?

It's all about look for me too... I agree with Dave, if that car alarm has been set on by the sound of the bike it might be just a bit too much loud ;)

[True but it would only be half as loud cos we only need 1 not both  :)]
