2012 Kawasaki nomad vn1700 fully debafled

[@AnthonysWestTexasRides]

Damn that is the loudest debaffled stock exhaust I have ever heard!

[@whattheweld9396]

They sounded great tho haha

[@whattheweld9396]

I have to say I kinda miss these vs my new set up haha

[@TexasHarleyBoy65]

Is there a mass murder going on in the background?!?

[@IkanGelamaKuning]

If I send my kid to school with this bike, whole school would watch us.

[@utubesmells75]

That sounds pretty damn good actually

[@mikecarter6569]

I got the same exact bike and same color I got Vance Hines they are very nice. Nice bike you got !

[@whattheweld9396]

Thank you! I unfortunately sold it but I have my eyes set on another!

[@kelbymusselman2920]

Are these currently for sale here in Indiana?

[@whattheweld9396]

Why yes they are!!

[@jimmykennedy502]

Had a 2009. Seventeen hundred boarder loved it loved it driftwood tan and pearl. Have a 2015 1700 voyager. Smoke black green stripe. Love it also

[@monelfunkawitz3966]

Not just debaffled, but fully debatled

[@whattheweld9396]

Haha only reason I put that is because there are 2 sets of baffles in the pipes lol.

[@kevindelk]

Sounds good. I've been looking for rear crash bars like u got for my 900 classic

[@slimriddim4145]

Nice tone ❤

What your height by the way. It looks like 250 cc's to you.

[@whattheweld9396]

6'2" haha yeah I make most things look tiny! Thanks for the view!

[@probutenko]

Oil 10w40 ?

[@whattheweld9396]

Yes

[@dAnybouy]

Sounds awesome 🤩 Could you explain how to go about this mod? How many plates i need to drill out from behind before the cat! Did you remove the plate from the front which is in front of the cat as well!!

[@whattheweld9396]

Super sorry for the late reply, you need to drill out a singular plate to remove the front part of the baffle. The big issue comes from the baffle itself being welded in the actual exhaust, so therefore you need to use a slide hammer to remove them. And yes I removed the plate in front of the baffles as well. It was a very labor intensive project so I must warn you!

[@励山田]

Nice to meet you, I'm riding a Vulcan 1700 Voyager in Japan. I sent you a message because I wanted you to tell me the name of this muffler. Could you tell me if you don't mind? m(_ _)m

[@whattheweld9396]

No problems! It's actually the stock mufflers that came on the motorcycle, I modified them myself to take the baffles out. I can go into further detail in a video if you really wanted

[@jrock2264]

um...so....how did you actually do it?

[@whattheweld9396]

Had to cut the pipe off behind the muffler and bust out the plate that's back there. And obviously reweld everything and good to go!

[@jrock2264]

[@whattheweld9396]

@@jrock2264 I do it for a living so it's not a big deal for me. Obviously not practical 😉 haha I switched these out for a 2-1 anyhows

Nice sound

Thank you!

[@thenormalguy6683]

I have an '08 1600 Nomad. I wasn't about to go through all that work with a hole saw and slidehammer, so I got a nice set of Cobras. Sounds loud, yet refined and definitely tolerable. Love them. Oh, and Dude? Put on some long pants, shoes, a jacket, and a helmet with eye protection. Are you nuts riding a motorcycle dressed like that?

[@whattheweld9396]

I am absolutely nuts. I didn't go far I never went without gear on a ride just this time for a short video was all haha thanks for watching and I'm glad you enjoy that nomad still! I sold this one unfortunately, time to get something a bit bigger!

[@thenormalguy6683]

@@whattheweld9396 - Love my Nomad, but the only gripe I really have is that when I went for my first semi-long run of the season yesterday (60 miles) that rock hard seat about killed my ass and hip. Maybe I'm just out of riding shape after a long winter? But the Cobras sounded awesome!

[@whattheweld9396]

@@thenormalguy6683 it was the seat that did it for me as well I was getting pretty sore about 150 miles in on a trip haha

ouch! I'm glad you haven't seen me on a short trip to get some beer. I'm riding in a tank top, shorts and crocs. The worse part of my comment is that it's true....lol

[@potatosalad9519]

i'll stick with my baffles. much more enjoyable going down the interstate

[@whattheweld9396]

Right on! To each their own :)

[@ogichidaawag3244]

I have same bike 2013 though.. I think I I'm gonna just drill holes in it instead. I definitely want to do something though.. stock sound like Sh%$#.

[@whattheweld9396]

The stock pipes reminded me of a huffy sewing machine haha

[@jamiemoffatt50]

Mine sounded like that and the cops pulled me over for loud exhaust. $1300 to change it back! It was better loud!

[@whattheweld9396]

That's terrible!
