Loud! 😁

 

Hello and welcome to the forum from North Yorkshire.

Wheels

Whether you will attract the attention of the Police will depend where and when you ride.

 

Hi
I too have purchased a new AEW silencer for the 400x scrambler.

However it won't fit!

I have tried lubricating the pipe that goes to the cat.

But It won't go on!

I noticed there is a split sleeve of tube inside - which i presume is to seal the end where the bolt is - but it all seem s very tight & also close to the swinging arm.

Help appreciated on how you got yours to fit?

 

I installed mine on a Speed so I'm not sure how much different the fitment is on the scrambler. I removed the split ring sleeve and it has a nice tight fit on the stock cat pipe with no leakage when tightened down. There is adequate clearance between the AEW can and the swingarm on my bike.

 

Hi
Thank you for the,quick reply.

Fit is same on both bikes.

I checked with my vernier, callers and figured out that the,split tube insert would need removal. But wanted to check....

Have you find the silencer sits very close to the,swinging arm?

Did you have to bend the support bracket over a bit?

 

Have you find the silencer sits very close to the,swinging arm?

I found on the scrambler when the swingarm was fully compressed there was a small interference between the exhaust and the swingarm. this may not apply to the street.

 

I wonder if there is a quality control issue

 

If you want something similar, check out British Customs slip on slash tip exhaust, it adds an end bit on but looks very similar to what you have there.

 

Thank you Oldi Goldie - I think a bit of leverage on the bracket is required......

 

So - lots of Copaslip & got the silencer on - good grief - is it tight!!!!!!!!!

Also incredibly close to swinging arm - anyone lese fitted the AEW silencer to a scrambler 400 & how did increase the gap between silencer & swinging arm?

 

Hi , I’m wondering , I took my muffler off as part of taking rear wheel off to install my rally raid spoke rims. I think it looks great ,any advise on using bike with stock exhaust ,without muffler ,would be appreciated ,please people that know not just hear say ,with respect

Those wheels looks fantastic.

Hey I took mine off about 500 km ago. No problems. Sounds good when gunning it and think the cat gives it some back pressure if it's needed. I added about 2" of pipe to mine just to get it flush with the heat shield

 

Hi
Help!
The Aew silencer now fitted actually touches the swinging arm , it has actually marked the back of the silencer. Oldgoldie, how did you increase the clearance? I cannot use the bike as I am concerned more damage will occur to the swinging arm.

The silencer cannot be moved over as the existing mounts on the cat dont allow it!

I have written to the manufacturer and supplier. My bike is a March 24 uk bike.

 

Oldgoldie, how did you increase the clearance?

Bad news. I didn't, the silencer is now sitting on a pile of junk.

 

Oldgoldie
Thank you for the reply - I feel your frustration.

 

I should have stated that fact when I said there was contact with the swing arm.

 

No - problem.
I have contacted the manufacturer in India & my supplier regarding a return/refund!

 

So - I decided to keep my silencer after receiving a part refund via an excellent supplier & o also wrote to the manufacturer - suggesting the the exhaust for the 400x was modified at the back with a flat section & i provided a photograph showing where it was catching the back of the silencer.

I spoke with an exhaust maker - at a local shop and one solution was that you either 'flatten' or to put an indent - with a large ball hammer - where contact is shown at the back of the silencer.....however I decided to carry on thinking about it.......

 

So after much trial and error we have a solution.

I had to undo the header bolts and the other 3 exhaust mounts and put in washers as spacers at each location , mine ended up at @5mm , yours may need more or less....

I used a plastic strip wrapped in polyhene and sparyed with silicone to ensure gap stayed in place, between swinging arm and back of silencer, then tightened everything up and voila!

Looks good in my opinion and weighs @1.4 kg less than stock , with nice deep exhaust and with baffle in , not offensive!

I have suggested to manufacturers a flat section to back kf tge exhaust they make...

 

how does it sound? i am thinking to get something louder for my Speed400

 

As I said before, with the db killer installed the AEW sounds virtually identical to the stock exhaust - with it removed it has a nice throaty sound but not really loud since the cat does a lot of the muffling. At idle and low speed it definitely won't upset the neighbors - only has a little bark when you open it up but still not very loud.

 

Does anyone know if the Hitchcox full system fits with both the upper and lower crash bars? I asked Hitchcox but they weren't sure.

The K-Speed one that I currently have smacks into the lower crash bar. It also runs very low along the side of the bike, and sits lower than the bash plate which makes using a centre lift problematic.

 

Gday riders.
I need help and advice. I have 400x and planning to remove the stock exhaust. So basically im going to decat and removing the catalytic, my question is how to remove the bottom sensor from this? Thank you and ride safe everyone

 

I just looked at my 2024 Scrambler and it does not have that O2 sensor. If my bike had one & I wanted to remove it I would stick wrench in there and just "break" it loose. then I would carefully/slowly remove the header/cat and completely unscrew the sensor before pulling the header/cat away from the bike.Since you're decating the bike what are your plans for the second O2 sensor? I haven't seen any decats with ports for that sensor. As far as I am aware the software has yet to be cracked so there is no way to tell the s/w to not look for the sensor.

 

@Oldgoldie thank you for your response. My main plan is to remove all the full system and change it with low exhaust or maybe high.! Im just wondering of how to remove the sensor and the catalytic converter. Example of picture is included which is grabbed from google lol. If you see the picture there is no catalytic converter. So where is the sensor go from the bottom? Thank you in advance

 

here ya go, see second post

Just seeing if anyone has put a slip-on on their bike and were there any performance/sound benefits, and which ones? I’ve been looking at LeoVince and the Stubby Predator carbon, anything else out there?

I have a LV with a db killer on my 400x. Sounds a bit better weighs a bit less. I also have a dna filter. My mate also has a 400x we both have 15 tooth c'shaft sprocket and mine seems to pull a bit better.

 

I just ordered the British Customs Slash Cut Tip slip-on. I’ll let you know how I like it.

 

Ali Express sell a beautiful decat pipe in stainless steel to get rid of the big muffler underneath and the Cat.

This retain the stock chrome covers and can be used with the stock muffler. Works only for the model with One Lambda sensor

Which models use 2 sensors and what models only one.?I ordered the ALI systeem, looks like 3 pieces. Do I need to modify for the sensor at the downpipe ? What happens if you ride without any sensors?
