Is there a quieter option out there then stock ? Finally put 120 miles on yesterday and find it louder and more annoying then my apex especially at lower rpm , wondering what options I have , thanks
What year sled do you have? Some of the 14's muffler cracked. Make sure to check if thats the source of noise. Panels can be melted in a hurry if crack is big enough that shielding on muffler goes.
Sorry it's a 2016 LTX Le it seems louder then what I'm used to , was hoping someone would have a magic answer lol
No. I agree. Even stock its louder than many sleds. Never heard of a quieter than stock exhaust. Sorry

xtx,
If your looking to quiet down the low RPM droan, I found the Bose active noise cancelling QuietComfort 20 ear buds to be very effective at quieting it down! They are expensive but it's pretty amazing the difference when you flip the switch. I found them to be much more effective at cancelling out the low frequency noise then ear plugs.
It does take some getting use to having them in your ears, if you don't use ear buds regularly. For in helmet use what I do is install the smallest ear adapters so that they fit as close to your ear as possible, then wear a thin balaclava to help hold them in as you slide your helmet on/off.
Usually I don't bother connecting my I pod and just use them for the noise cancelling function.
