Urban GS - silencer options?

[gabriel_gs]

Hey folks,

I have a Urban GS on the way and am looking for nice sounding silencer options.

I had a Scrambler a few years back and the Akra's sounded lovely

What's a similar pipe (or the accepted 'go to') for the urban?

Standard sounded great on mine, not sure you’ll need one

I had a Unit Garage on my R9T and loved the sound of it. Baffle is removable but then made things too loud for my liking. https://piercitycustom.com/

Ah interesting - well, if it sounds as nice as the Scrambler’s then I’ll probably leave as is

Nice - but I bet that system cost a LOT

I’d be tempted to upgrade the suspension first

Does sound nice, especially on overrun. Testers at the time regularly mentioned they were surprised the standard bikes passed sound emission tests. Save your money for a better shock

Cool. But not what I’m after.

If it sounds nice as is, then I’ll keep my cash. Not fussed about the suspension, the conservative way I ride anyway!

Fair enough , but the original Urban GS had dreadful suspension. The latest bike may well be better - it certainly couldn’t be worse

About £750 as it’s a can only.

yeah that’s a lot for a can in my world

This is a Cobra M3 works well much lighter and a nice sound that won't frighten the horses.

Full disclosure its also for sale £150 posted.

It’s the headers that make the difference

Black Akra on mine. Not sure it makes any difference TBH...

 

[gabriel_gs]

The more I read, the more there seems to be 2 types… ‘not much different to stock’ or ‘offensive’

Yip got them in mine together with an Arrow silencer, love it.
