I'd be pretty undecided too on it, would make me feel pretty self-conscious every time I went for a ride, but think of it this way, at least people that didn't see you before on your little Navi, they'll definitely *hear* you! 😃

Literally put one on today. It’s loud for sure. Is it worth the money? I’d say yes. Sound, looks, weight, performance was improved. Stock topped out at 48mph. With the Yoshimura pipe I felt more pep off the line and hit 53 mph today on flat ground. I’m 6’1” 187lbs. I was not fully tucked and no windscreen. I Put the silencer in tonight. Will try tomorrow.

I'm having flashbacks of modding my Ruckus 15 years ago.... It might seem crazy expensive and pointless but at the time, it was a lot of fun. I miss that bike (not the lack of power though).

I like the Yoshi pipe on it and I’m glad to see I’m not the only lunatic who parks his bike in the living room 😂

Y’all I could hear him all the way down the street😂😂😂

Currently saving up for a Navi! Currently half way there. I'm so excited! Yoshi pipes sounds so good! 😎👌

I'd go back to stock or see if they have a different silencer because the pipe looks really good on the Navi. Those little single thumpers have a sound to them that is hard to make better. They tune the sound so good in house that aftermarkets usually don't pan out too well unless you want to wear earplugs every time you ride.

Small bike, big sound 🤙🏼

Silence with good performance is KING, - I’ll use the $500 for funding my riding adventures. THANKs for CVT and shock mod vids, they RULE THE Day !!!

Heyy! Great video as usual. I met some of your friends at a Cycle Gear. I could not believe it! I just wanted to let you know that you're the reason I'm getting into motorcycle. I'm starting my MSF course soon and I'm very excited. Anyway, keep it up man. You're awesome.

That's been my issue with essentially all exhausts I've put on my bikes: they're all too loud. I want an exhaust that's a bit louder than stock, but no matter if I've gone with FMF, Two Bros, Akrapovic or Yoshimura they're all absurdly loud. It's a shame you have to choose between a wheezing stock exhaust or a loud as shit hooligan exhaust. Finding the sweet spot in between these two extremes is very difficult, and every time you try a new exhaust that claims to be less loud you end up spending like 500 dollars only to find out they were lying.

If you want it a bit more bearable You could always buy an aftermarket ebay silencer that instead of on the muffler it fits in the header where the muffler connect. Not sure which type since there are a ton of different styles and types of universal fitting and shapes not sure how it would affect the Navi 🤔

Not going to lie, your videos convinced me to get a Navi! Using it as a commuter for a 6-mile round trip. I also wanted to keep things quiet, as I live in an urban area and don't want to piss off my neighbors. Guess I'll be leaving it stock! xD

The Yoshi RS2 for the Navi weighs 5.0 lbs. total, and removes 6.4 lbs. of useless Honda scrap metal. To make sure you don't need to go up in carb jet size, keep an eye on the condition of your spark plug by checking the tip every +/- 100 miles a few times and if it looks pretty good then drop it down to every +/- 500 miles). It will let you know visually if the Yoshi exhaust has allowed enough increased airflow to result in your AFR running leaner (too lean?) with the new exhaust. This also may be why your "butt dyno" feels like the Navi might be a tad bit less responsive to increased throttle. I'm sure the guys at the Scooter Swap Shop could give you some input also.

I just purchased my 1st bike/scooter Honda navi now that I watch you’re vids they going to help me out so much keep up the content 🤝

Just installed my Yoshimura exhaust on my Navi. Without any additional inserts, it's SO loud! It rattled my brains on my ride to and from work...and rattled the header nuts right out... Silly me didn't check a torque spec, just cranked em down with my ratchet. Looks like you bought the spark arrestor. Yosh sells a silencer too. I'll be buying the silencer for sure. The plus side of losing the header nuts is that it gave me a reason to order additional parts since I was already paying for shipping. Bought a Ranger Green headlight surround and silver lower covers from the Ranger Green model (mine is N U T Brown)

Put some glasswool and baffle in the exhaust. Will make a much better sound. You can also put a pipe inside the silencer, thats slightly longer than the silencer, pushed in the muffler. Will also sound better.

When one of my scooter's exhaust needed to be replaced, I only had an $8 lawn mower muffler handy. It looked stupid, but sounded just like this!

Man just put a Yoshi exhaust on the Navi 😭😭 can’t wait to see the race!!

Probably means that stock the intake is the limiting factor on power. A drz400 gains very little from a pipe unless you do the 3x3 and rejet. 3x3 refers to removing the snorkel from the airbox and enlarging the hole to 3"x3".

Mine was $2900 out the door, so an extra $500 isn't too bad to be heard. Could save your life some day

Another great video Mike!

Dude I like most of your videos and am almost for sure getting a navi or 2 in part cause of your videos ! Now that being said I absolutely love the sound of an awesome loud engine like the rebel 1100 but if it sounds like a super loud fart mobile like some imports. Absolutely prefer it just be quiet, especially if it costs a 3rd of the bike 😂. At any rate though, very informative as usual to not do it my case at least. Thanks!

Thanks for ur video i literally just put it following ur steps and it’s awesome

I’m loving the Navi videos! Keep it up Burch!

Make it loud baby!

There is no justice.... the yoshi is insane . My bike sounds like a machine gun on deceleration. So far I have the yoshi with mnnthbx intake and it's amazing... BUT.. go clutch and variator work and then it's on ! Yes it's a small bike and work to get it here , so go big if you want to get nuts.. or navi to have fun working on it

Dude we have the exact same bikes 😎 white 15 grom and brown 22 Navi gotta love Honda minis with Yoshimura exhausts

To weigh light things on a bathroom scale, you weight yourself, then hold the thing your weighing an weigh yourself again. Wb-Wa=Wc

Does it NEED it? No. But are we going to do it anyway? Fuck yeah.

LOVED Nina’s expression!!

Hotlap type 666 is a better choice.Hand made ,super quality, actually adds performance, and less money. No extra cost for silencer insert either.

with or without the silencer i didn't notice a single difference by watching it from the video, maybe it's different when you're actually there(?)

Hey, thats me! haha! Great video as always!

The pie cut header pipe, with its welds (apparently) not ground smooth, does not match up with Yoshimura's usual high end fit and finish.

I will bet there are jet kits for the Navi or a complete carb that will give you even better performance.

I'm thinking that the muffler is only friction fitted into place may have something to do with noise volume. Mainly that it isn't sealed. Anyone driving a car with an exhaust leak can attest to the increased noise 🤔

Looks & sounds great 👍

I hate being super loud, riding a thumper with a cvt I would be so self conscious LOL. On my VFR at least I know some people like the sound 😅

Hey Burch, thanks for the rad review. We do make a spark arrestor for the RS-2. Shoot us your addy and we will send you one to try. BTW do you live in a Country Club?

Awesome ordered mine . I will go with silencer.. keep the videos coming.. did u feel a different with new exhaust?

I would've painting the tubes with VHT black, would look great

Yup, I sold my yoshi that I had on my grom for the same reason, too damn loud. Went back to stock, even tho too quiet it doesn't hurt my ears.

It literally sounds exactly the same with or without a silencer

You should of bought Merritt Billy Perry grips. They're wicked. Nail polish would cover the chiped paint.

Does this need a 20 minute video?

I'm thinking go up a jet size for the Main jet, leave the pilot jet so it can still pop and if you run it on a higher octane, it will weirdly be quieter as well, but you may want to go up two main jet sizes (possibly) But a $500 exhaust on a $1800 bike... people put $1000 exhausts on $5000 bikes... and they aren't even legal! at least when it is exempt from Emissions laws due to it's size in the first place. it makes more sense to put the exhaust on it that a bigger bike that MUST have to original exhaust with the cat and all that crap!

I waited to order the baffle. I regret the volume but it sounds so good!

What you can do is just weigh yourself, then weigh each muffler and subtract. I do it with my dogs since theyre barely 15 pounds

What about the lack of a burn shield?

Go stock

I love Yoshis quality, but they're stuff is too loud IMO for most situations

I’m going to leave stock exhaust. I did intake, clutch, variator and buying the R1 camshaft and calling it a day. My Grom is loud asf and gives me a headache.

It's popping because now it's running lean with the bigger exhaust !!! You need to up the jet sizes...pilot and main !!!

Great video Burch !!! 🤙🏽

I love it if you decide not to keep it on would you consider selling it.The reduce weight alone . Should be more efficient speed I would love to have one for my Honda Navi. I do not have $500 to buy one maybe I could buy used one

Sounds great to me but I also love loud bikes lol.

in my experience, every aftermarket exhaust has different character (low-mid-high sound) but in 1 cylinder bike they have 1 problem: loud 😂😂

Exhaust looks gorgeous…. But under load it’s as loud as a lawnmower or gas leaf blower. Holy crap.

Was the yellow on the bolts from something you did before or to help us see in the video? If it was to help us see that is such a genius idea!

Big big fan of the small bike life

You should do the scooter swap shop navi carburetor upgrade. really wake up the navi with the new exhaust

Nail polish works good for scuffs like that.

It doesn’t but it makes it much more entertaining to ride. I just hope you don’t get worse gas mileage. I put a Leo Vince GP Corsa Full System Exhaust on my 2015 honda pcx and it dropped me like 15mpg.

I have the Yoshimura R-34 on my Rebel 500 and love the shit out of it.

Wish I would've gotten. This for 200 more than my pos vance hynes that has broken twice 😢

I left mine on love it

Pretty slick but probably not great for stealthy navi shenanigans 😆

I don't know where you bought yours a Navi out of the door in Florida cost $3200

Why do they keep calling an over 2500$ bike 1800$ bike when it is not?

I like the look of the Yoshi exhaust just worried its going to be too loud for ripping around the neighborhood, I don't want to be that guy, If I'm going to be loud its going to be a car or truck

if you take it off ill buy it from you haha =) nice Navi video like always!

Love the montage video's mate

Where in Calif can you find a Navi for list : or anywhere close.

I wonder if there's a $100 amazon option, put a little shorty muffler on my crf230, such fun.

Did u have to jet the carb after installing exhaust

I like how quiet my navi is.

Aww man wish they had hooked it up with that keychain for the orders I put in

tuned performance exhaust ! try less throttle?

@lifeofburch, did the new muffler add any speed on your top end? It seems to have added 4 MPH to the top end on mine. Did you do the race?

Make sure you're keeping all the old parts - at some point I'll find a Navi frame and come to your house to buy the rest of the pieces :D

The best part of scooters is mods to get that 3mph of more speed.

Bro I just watched the video you made a year ago where to got swamp a** on the grom and found it hilarious, did you manage to go full time with youtube like you mentioned in the video? Always wanted a grom and yours looks amazing in white 😁😁

I just recently replaced my navi stock exhaust with Vance & Hines exhaust and noticed it's not getting the top speed. What am I missing? It acceleration seems fine on take off but starts to top off around 35mph any advice?

Vance and Hines is supposed to have a version 2 out for the Navi early March. Hopefully the don't jack the price up .

Boy that must be a sad thing when all your decision's revolves around what the police/neighbor's think

This engine same with honda beat in asia, there tons of racing part for this kind of engine here in indonesia,

Hey Burch, or anyone on this thread. Has anyone else had issue with the gas line appearing close to the exhaust?

Great video !!!

Hey I was wondering what ended up being quieter between the silencer or spark arrestor on the Navi exhaust? And did it get rid of the flames and the back firing?

Great video 👍🏼

I hope you did a re-jet, because your bike is running crazy lean! As in potential engine damage. I don't know who at Yoshimura said it was okay to suggest otherwise...

You're going to need a bigger condo if u keep parking the bikes in the living room. Lol.

Talk to the company and see if they offer, or could make you a quieter silencer.

If you can't have a sound bomb horn. A Hot Lap is the next best thing to be heard.

Grom or Navi, and why? Looking to buy one or the other just to go around town and have fun with.

You should do a performance difference video with it like you have in past videos.

I guess I am missing something when it comes to the Navi. I do not see an actual motorcycle when I look at it. I see a scooter on a shortened chassis and not something that would be considered to be in the same class as the Grom.

Perfect vihicle
