Hi, has anyone got Beowulf warrior end cans fitted? My Blueflame's are just too damn loud & as they're race twin port titanium pipes, I can't retro fit baffles to them according to Blueflame.
Trouble is when I leave for work on early shifts, I'm off at 0545 and I've just taken the VFR off the road for some essential maintenance, new bearings all round + replacing/overhauling the suspension etc. So the Falco is going to be used a fair bit over the next few weeks. The blue flames sound gorgeous, but I need to be able to quiten her down a fair bit, Beowulf are fairly local to me and look like a good price, any feedback welcome?
Cheers

I think Howard is running Beowulf's - not sure if they are Warriors though.

Have a look at Fuel too - been very happy with mine.

Hi Paganman, I've got Beowulf Warriors fitted and think they really suit the Falco.
Like you i'm off early to work, and had no complaints from the locals.
Did a track day at Cadwell Park last year and they were measured at 100db with the baffles out, but quieter with them in.
Hope this helps.

Standard Beowulfs on mine which although loud, are not obnoxious. Very well made too.
Andy who runs Beowulf did have an Aprilia Tuono and obviously ran it with his own cans which were cut down Warriors if i remember correctly.
Sounded sweet!!

Standard Beowulfs on mine too. With the baffles in they are fairly quiet at idle and low revs. Never had any complaints but then I live in the sticks

Beowulf Titanium Ovals on mine. They are well made and I have been very happy with them, but they certainly ain't quiet. Never taken the baffles out, as they are loud enough with them in. Not sure if mine are louder because they are titanium and possibly thinner.

Usually wear earplugs, so not as bad, but seriously notice whenever I forget to put them in. I have heard louder race cans, but bought these as I thought they would be quieter with baffles in.
A mate of mine has an R6 with a full Aka race system, and he complains when he follows me that he can't hear his bike.
Then again, they are not so noisey I would change them.

How did they sound when you were following me on the run the Willingtham Ken?
Silly question, probably couldn't hear them with the Warriors on yours!

I've got a set of warriors on mine, they are sooooooooo loud with the baffels out, some improvement with them in, but not much. They are shorter then most cans so always gonna be very loud.....I love um tho

Thanks for all the responces, think I'll be getting a pair sorted in the near future, as long as I can warm her up and bimble out of town quietly I'll keep my neighbours happy. The lady next door loves the sound, just not at 05:45!
