Anyone know were I can find a hmf or similar pipe for a 2012 Sportsman 500 H.O. ?

 

Give speedwerxstore a look at. They list a slip-on for the 2012. Call them as when I ordered some items from them they did not have a listing on it ,but they did carry what I wanted. Great people to work with.

 

ok i'll give them a shout. Thanks!

 

I have a hotseat slip on from speedwerx and they are top notch and sound great but are a little on the loud side. I've been considering going back to the stock exhaust for the stealthiness factor. Shoot me a pm with an honest/fair offer and I may take you up on it. It only has about 400 miles on it, still looks new and I paid $265.

 

Must have something to do with age or being around diesel engines. I have complete system hanging in the shed. Fits great,look fine,but after a little while just a tad too loud. I have gotten pretty good at changing the exhaust.

 

I think maybe a little of both. I deal with noisy machinery day in and day out so much that sometimes I just prefer a little quiet. Some times it's awesome to rip the throttle and hear the exhaust bellow but then there's times when cruising at higher speeds for any length of time becomes annoying.

 

Living with tinnitus(buzzing,hissing in the ears) from all the years of noise,allergies,etc! I like quiet exhausts now too! If I'd only used ear protection along with the safety glasses! This a warning to you young guys,especially if you work in noisy conditions!! OPT
