I saw in Dirt Wheels mag HMF has both a slip on and a full exhaust for the p700. I was just wondering if these are much louder than stock? I want it to breath good but I'd like the noise level to stay as mild as possible. Any sugestions? Thanks.

I installed the "full" system a few months ago. It breathes real well, runs great, etc.

It is loud. The "quiet core" HMF offers for it is not something I would be proud of.....did I mention that it is loud? But IMO, it's hard to produce hp without being loud; something's got to give.

Thanks for the info n2xlr8n. I knew it would be louder than stock but I was hoping it wouldn't be that loud. They say a kaw can't breath with a clothes pin on it's nose and a cork in it a$$ so I guess i'll have to pull them off and let it breath.

I know this is terribly subjective, but I ride with a guy (who's always in front of me) has a Big Gun on his Grizzly.....I can barely hear mine under me. It's not as loud as some; to me the power is worth it. Talk to some folks, ask around, I think the HMF makes the most power under the curve.

I have the HMF on my p700 also . It's louder than stock but it sounds good . I just ordered the quiet core for it to see how it does . n2xlr8n did you have to change any jetting after putting in the quiet core ? I have the 143 front and 145 rear mains .

My i suggest the ProCircuit Type 496!!!! This pipe sounds AWESOME!!!!! Most of my buddies own rincons, one with an HMF and one with a Powetech4. Both agree they are louder then mine and mine has a better note. But it's hard to beat the sound of a twin [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Now i just gotta get the Dial-a-jets and carb in synce with each other...........

lookin into the PC type 496.........the numbers mean 4 stroke and 96 dB. The PC T-4 and HMF are both over 100 db without q-cores and the q-core on the hmf kills any gains it makes.

Thanks for the info VTPrairie . I mainly got the quiet core so I wouldn't have to put my stock exhaust back on for hunting season . I't should be a lot easier to take in and out .
