A motorcycle baffle is a product used to reduce exhaust sound.

It is usually a long perforated tube that extends along the exhaust gas flow path. The exhaust gases pass through it, where the exhaust noise is muffled due to the narrowing of the path.

Why install or replace a baffle on a silencer?

The purpose of the baffle is to reduce noise to acceptable decibel limits that will be comfortable for your ears and those of law enforcement.

From a legal point of view, the decibels produced by a motorcycle must correspond to the original information of the motorcycle. Information available on the gray card and on the vehicle manufacturer's plate.

In addition, since 2019, new latest generation radars have been tested to penalize motorcyclists for "excess noise". A new tax greater than the cost of a DB Killer chicane .

How to adjust the sound of the motorcycle chicane?

Our motorcycle exhaust baffles have the particularity of having a removable part at the end of the baffle. This removable part allows you to better adjust the sound volume you want to have on your motorcycle.

The motorcycle baffle is available in several diameters :
