Hi! When I bought my bike, it already had a slash-cut Jardine on it. I too thought it seemed noisy, but the shop guy said it would be safer because people would hear me coming etc. So, in that sense, I'd rather have some noise, and have other drivers aware of my presense. Besides, I don't know that it's any louder than a lot of the other bikes out there(?)

Ive had the stock muffler put back on, but left the new jets and spacer filed down. The bike shop adjusted jets etc.
Now the bike is running great. I have only heard one tiny "phut" on decceleration, doesn't backfire at all when I turn it off and the extra power is still there.
Here in NZ we have "boy racer" laws that mean you can get ticketed for having a muffler on a car or bike that is louder than stock. So I really didn't want to attract too much attention with the Jardine. And it was LOUD.
(Anyone after a brand new Jardine exhaust?)
Thanks for the input everyone.
