          Never tried changing the flute as there are both different designs. Shoguns muffler is very different from the RX muffler. Posting a pic of the Shogun muffler, you can compare it with the RX muffler and get an idea of how different they are.

                    Haha the shoguns mufler is not really a mufler but an inbuilt chamber !! Donno how TVS got it through the RTOs !! Shoguns are the sweetest sounding stock single cylinders ever built in India . And that is a super RX youve got, super paint job !
