ExBox or Boom Tubes?

[angler]

+1 on working with Mark.  He builds a quality product and really stands behind it.  Can't wait for more of his stuff.....

I didn't see a set for the 696.  Is this in the works?

[duccarlos]

Mark is looking for a 696 in the NW for mock up.

Indianapolis realy isn NW, but I'm willing to test parts.

Installed with power commander and airbox. 2005 S2R 800 is now making 75.5 HP at the rear with 55 ft lbs of torque. Sounds awesome.







I'll take better pictures and hopefully video in a few days.

did you get the Duc ECU?  I'm running full Termis and PCIII and get only 71 hp and 53 torque.  have the exact same bike too.
thanks.

Stock ECU with open airbox. Did you get a custom map?

[muskrat]

I did get it mapped.  would that make it less potent? 

[duccarlos]

Open airbox? Did the tech that worked on it put enough time into it? They put 180 miles on the dyno for my map. It takes a lot of time to fully map it out.

QUESTION:
Has anyone put some miles on a bike with the boom tube setup ?
I ask becasue I am curious to see if the pipes exiting directly under your right ear is a bother ?
I know riding a hour or so with the open udder def. gets to me.

I spent about two hours on it tonight, riding about an hour each way to an event.  On the way there I used ear plugs, on the way back I didn't.  I could definitely "feel" it in my ears by the time I got home.  I wouldn't say that I could tell it was nosier in the right ear though.....YMMV

That's what I thought..
Not that it's a big deal while blasting around town, but after a hour or so that "drone" does get old.

I now find myself shifting differently to keep the RPM's in the quiet spot.  On the open highway that is easier to do.  In town, with all the reverberations from other hard objects and the constant accel/decel, it is impossible to do.  As I sped through the 395 tunnel in DC on my way home last night the sound was awesome.  Completely filled the tunnel.  They were doing construction and I think every worker stopped and looked up.

Mark and I are going to play with different baffles to see if we can get it a little more mild mannered.  Its not so loud that earplugs don't work, and at idle, it is mellow enough not to piss off the neighbors when I let it warm up.

I ran your setup for a few years. The tubes are not so much louder than the udder. They just sound better. Under heavy load they are louder, but under normal acceleration they are fine. I would not want to stand to my right as I'm going along, but with ear plugs, you should be fine.

Dear MotoCreations Mark,

Any chance on making a dual rear exit exhaust setup in the near future ?

Unfortunately not for the S2R*, S4R* nor Hypermotard, Sportclassic, etc .  We can custom modify a production BoomTube system though based upon time/materials quote.

If/when we can ever find a Northwest enthusiast with a 696/1100, we will do BoomTubes as well as a unique underseat exhaust system arrangement for these.
