Racefit baffle

Correct.
Though when I queries the paste with Racefit (John) he said it's not necessary, gases simply blast through and rarely if ever work back to the join.

 

Makes sense, although they supplied a tube of Racefit branded silicone with mine. Probably belt and braces which is typical from my experience with the company.

 

Ah! 2011 doesn’t use one, that’s my only experience of fitting one. Glad you got sorted

 

I thought i would put up some thoughts after riding the bike today with the baffle in.

Its made a huge difference and for me riding is more pleasurable and less dominated by noise. I dont hear the exhaust anymore on the motorway and i can hear the engine noise for the first time. It still barks but is not so offensively. I think i will be leaving it in for the foreseable.

 

Has yours still got the wadding around it? Mine burnt off on a long trip to Germany..

 

I hope so, yesterday was my first ride with it so i will keep an eye on it, if thats what can happen.

 

Good post Kirk , of definite interest to anyone looking to fit Racefit.

 

Racefit finish is awesome on the welding, but, I must say the fixing for the baffle looks a little 'agricultural', still no one will see it unless their nosing around your rear end!
