What are the disadvantages of using exhaust baffles?
The most obvious disadvantage associated with exhaust baffles is the increased back pressure they cause. The combustion of motor fuel in any vehicle engine leads to the formation of exhaust gases as by-products. These exhaust gases are then pushed out of the vehicle via the exhaust system through the muffler and exhaust baffles.
What happens when you remove the baffles on a bike?
Removing baffles only makes you think the bike is running better because it’s noisier. In reality, if you were to measure the power, you would find it’s down from where it was with baffles installed and the mixture would be leaned out from where it was which is the main problem. We’re talking a street bike here and not a race bike. My experience.
