The Bike Dork Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Hi all, I think this is the right section. What's the best way to remove the spot weld on the baffle for an arrow exhaust? Thanks, Alex. Quote
Adam Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 I don't know what it looks like but can't you drill it? Start small 3mm and work your way up until it comes lose. Quote

Start small 3mm and work your way up until it comes lose.It's a tiny little spot next to the screw so I'd worry about slipping. I guess you're saying if I go slow enough it'll work though. Just a standard drill bit? Quote
The Bike Dork Posted November 1, 2015 Author Posted November 1, 2015 This is what it looks like. There's a spot of weld either side of the metal bit the screw is on. Quote

Can't seem to upload the photo...Check the file size.......If it's too big it won't upload.Be careful when "modifying" the exhaust as it could mess up the fuelling....... Quote
Glorian Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 I debated removing mine on the standard exhaust, realised that the hassle was going to be to much. Bought a scorpion end can instead and it has a removeable baffle, problem is it's loud AF with the baffle in so i havn't bothered Quote
The Bike Dork Posted November 2, 2015 Author Posted November 2, 2015 Resized pic... Has nobody done this to their Street triple?? Quote
Mr Fro Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 You mean the little tack on the bolt? I'd stick an Allan key in it and give it a try - it only looks to be a tiny tack so might well pop right off. Quote
Grumpy Old Git Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 if not, a small file will cut through it in no time. Quote
Guest Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Hack saw and 10mins.Clean and will get through it. Quote
The Bike Dork Posted November 6, 2015 Author Posted November 6, 2015 I've gone for a small file - lots of elbow grease and time but i'm nearly there! Only gave up halfway through the first attempt because it started to rain. Quote
The Bike Dork Posted November 8, 2015 Author Posted November 8, 2015 Took bloody ages! Did it though. Not 100% convinced about the arrow exhaust. I think I prefer it and it gives nice burbles on the overrun but it's a lot of money for not much gain. Quote
The Bike Dork Posted November 8, 2015 Author Posted November 8, 2015 what gain did you expect? Purely sound gains, not performance if that's what you're asking? I expected it to be a bit gruffer than it is. On the whole I prefer the noise but I think the stock exhaust had a nicer mid range growl. Quote
Stu Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 two brothers is the way to go for more sound! ask techno if its a new exhaust give it time to bed in some get better as time goes on Quote
Tango Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 The TOR's on my Speed Triple sound really nice.......not too loud, but nice and throaty....... You may need to remap the ECU for the Arrow can though.......to get the best out of it....... Quote
