Right now i'm running the stock exhaust on my 1300. I took the baffles out of the tips but want it a little louder. So whats a good exhaust system that will make some noise but won't hurt the performance? It would be nice to gain a little power but as long as I don't loose any i'm happy. I would prefer one that will work with the stock heater boes and has the heat riser hook ups.

Just get a zoom tube if you want sound. Keeps the stock muffler and bolts right up to the pea shooter inlets. Sounds nice too I'll vouch.

But would it be much louder than the stock tips with baffles removed? Will the zoom tube decrease my performance or gas mileage at all?
