Hi shinesudhakiran!

You are welcome bud, & it's a pleasure. I would just add as I have always said that it gives an opportunity to me as well to learn things & develop a better understanding of what I might already know.

Take care.

Happy thumping,

Hi bud,

Well you can go in for a short bottle silencer, like the ones that used to come on the old Bullets, & also you can have a free flow one. But you have to be cautious about the jetting of the bike. Whenever a silencer is changed, the carburettor settings have to be adjusted according to the new exhaust, which is usually achieved by simple adjustments. But if yu put on a free flow, you will need to put in bigger jets to compensate for the increased breathing ability of the engine (i.e. more air & leaner mixture). If the jetting is not taken care of, then the you might end up frying your exhaust valves for a start & also ultimately ruining the engine. So, best option for now, go in for a short bottle silencer, not free flow, the normal one. A free flow is the one which doesn't provide any obsruction to the exhaust.

Hope this has helped. Thanks for considering me for taking advice.

Take care.

Happy thumping,

Better performance and better thump is what you can expect.but make sure you dont go for a free flow one. because that would be too lound and also would fry your valves. if possible get the PAV removed... and also when you get the new Exaust get the CConvertor removed...
