Just removed exhaust muffler from Honda Steed

[rasmy]

Hi,

 

 

I just removed the exahust mufflers from my steed 400 and now it is pretty close to harley sound and it sounds like a much much bigger bike....

 

My question is will removing the muffler hurt my bike in any way!?

 

What are the advantages/disadvantages of this move?

 

Thanks in advance

go and see ur mekanik n ask him if u need to do any adjustment on ur valves and carburetors.

No harm asking.

 

Cause w/o mufflers the exhaust flow is more thus ur enjin valve timings maybe out.

How do I know if the valves are out of timing without a mechanic? the bike runs perfectly with no backfire and without anything unusual except for the LOUD NOISE that I like:)

Don't use realise that you have lost some low end performance ?

 

There will not be any damage to your bike engine but technically you should increase your jettings.

Thanks for all the replies, i posted this here and on another forum, basically i got the same answers; that i need to tune the bike for that, since i will be changing the bike in max 4 month with something bigger, i dont need to deal with any troubles with the bike now, so i put them on again :)

fuel consumption will go up. you may have to adjust your jetting. it may be running lean, which increases the engine's running temperature.

super hot, but the attention you get is priceless

 

plus most ppl tink is harley anyway

 

TP is more interested in scramblers and 2 strokes like the sp

 

you have a nice ride

well, U should and Must know whos COUNTRY you are standing on right NOw.

Likely that ur low end torque will suffer if u dont increase the jettings.

 

This normally happends when exhaust flow is faster & no tuning is done.
