My G310R is super loud!

[YoungHolmes]

I finally bought the Dominator GP1 exhaust and installed it on my bike. I like it a lot fo sho! because I can hear my motorbike better and others on the road can hear me coming too. Sadly, the neighbours aren't big fans haha. I need a DB Killers or Baffles. Can someone tell me which is better for this case? What's the difference between medium and hard, and how about the size? Any insights are welcome!

db killers and baffles both reduce noise but db killers are usually more restrictive so you'll lose some performance while baffles tend to be less aggressive and better for just taking the edge off if your goal is to keep some power while calming things down a baffle might be the better call size depends on the exhaust opening but medium vs hard usually refers to how much they reduce noise hard being quieter but also cutting more flow

Adding to this. Medium hardness tends to strike a balance between quieting things down and keeping that growl intact. Hard might make your bike whisper quiet. Have you measured the exhaust diameter yet? Getting the right size is key to avoiding any unwanted rattles or performance drops.

I agree with @lowblowjoe getting the hard one means you're likely back to stock or even quieter. You might want to measure how loud the exaus is so that you know how many db to tune it down, but make sure you get the right size

Hah. Do you like that it's loud? If yes then let the neighbors cringe everytime they hear it. Lol don't please them. Just don't use the bike when it's too early or too late into the night. That's the only downtime to consider.

Great choice with the GP1,they sound fantastic! If your neighbors are a bit cranky, a DB killer is definitely the way to go instead of a baffle, it's cleaner, easy to install and remove, and designed specifically for that pipe. When it comes to medium versus hard, it usually just depends on how much noise reduction you want, medium will tone it down without losing its character, while hard brings the volume down significantly. Size is important as well,make sure to match the inner diameter of your GP1 outlet for a snug fit. I'd suggest starting with medium and seeing how it goes

What's the difference between medium and hard, and how about the size?

"Medium" and "Hard" usually refer to the level of sound reduction, with "Hard" being the quietest and most restrictive. For most riders, the "medium" or standard baffle is the perfect compromise. It will take the harsh, sharp edge off the exhaust note, but still let you hear the bike. The performance loss from a standard baffle is often negligible for street riding
