halllo

Does any one know how if the interior of the rear muffler of an r100gs exhaust?

Some photos would be nice...

I saw some photos but it was from a 1150cc bike

Hi Bernardo The translation didn't come out correctly.

What were you asking for? A photo of the inside of a rear muffler?
or What other type of muffler fits a R100GS?

Heheeh

I don’t use translators but obviously I had my eyes closed when I sent that message last night!


I will try again:

Does anyone know how the interior of the rear muffler is? (r100gs)

I found some photos of a muffler interior but it was from a 1150cc bike

You don't have to cut them open to remove the baffle.........they do it themselves eventually

On a serious note, what did you want to do to the muffler?

i can attest to that. Most of mine ended up on the floor after removing, shaking & turning on its end. Now there's just a big bit that rattles nicely

my one has just rusted out in just under 2years so its off to get its 2rd part welded.
it be quicker to cut along the welding

hello
“On a serious note, what did you want to do to the muffler?”

-First of all is academic curiosity. (how does it work)
-to “free flow” the exhaust gases a bit to improve low torque, without messing with the looks. I would prefer to switch the collector box but the results are not obvious. -Reducing some weight would also be nice

“You don't have to cut them open to remove the baffle.........they do it themselves eventually”

Ehehee I know that from personal experience!

The simplest way to do this is with a hole saw (19mm?) on a long extension, go in through the tail pipe and cut several holes through the rear baffle plate. It won't make a huge difference but reduces the restriction. With a bit more banging and crashing you can break off the complete baffle plate (so what if it falls back into the muffler, it rattles anyway ) A magnet on a telescopic handle is useful as is a single LED torch on a flexible extension. I think Beemerboff has done a similar modification -Oz ingenuity

And in the inlet side? is the front buffer plate accessible? That’s why I would like to see a diagram of the inside of the muffler
