This may sound a little silly.. but get about 3/4 of a foot of bicycle inner tuber and slip it over your exhaust outlet.
Tape in place and it'll lower your db output a bit.

Sounds silly.. looks silly.. but is V.Cheap and works! :) :D

over here in England our pipes come standard at this DB reading. now if the pipes are anything like the 15 pipe shoot out i read in DBR you aren't going to beat Mr Yamaha's figures. unfortunately we don't get the very precise tests you do over the pond.

i reckon the WR pipe is for you.

Hey Islandrider, I live in Oregon and the dunes are great. You do need a spark arrestor and have to be at 93db. They check bikes frequently. The key is not to haul ass by them. I have the FMF Power core iv silencer but have yet to take my 426 to the dunes. Hopefully i'll be there in two weeks. Good Luck!!!
