I thought your stock can sounded pretty good, but the new exhaust definitely sounds better, looks better, and probably shaved off a few pounds as well. Doing the wrench-twisting yourself makes you an official biker 😎

Congrats on the new can. Sound nice for sure. The only thing I would add as a comment is that after you install an exhaust and before you fire it up, use rubbing alcohol and rub the entire thing down so that your finger prints will not burn into the exhaust. Maybe not an issue since your exhaust is blacked out, but good to do anyway.

Installed this on my Rebel 300, left baffle in, wear a full helmet. Pretty sure I have permanent hearing loss.... sounds horrible above anything but idle. It might be better on a 500 where the catalytic converter isn't removed.... but not for me. The stock 300 muffler with the baffle removed honestly idles about the same, sounds better through the revs, sounds better on downshifts and won't blow your hearing out.
