Did you notice an improvement in the bike's performance? The stock exhaust and cat. converter make the throttle response too lazy for me. BAAK are bringing out the No.1 Bars pre-drilled for heated grips later this year, they tell me.
Tom Gidley didnt realt notice any big difference. But the sound makes it all worth it! Oh! They will? I will look out for those bars when they come. Always nice with heated grips! :)
@@gudbrandsrud Interesting you didn't see much difference, I thought losing the catalytic converter would make a big improvement. Yes I think it's a great move by BAAK to offer a drilled version for those bars.
Tom Gidley hi, the removal was a bit fiddly but it was not too bad. I downloaded the instructions on cat removal from freespiritsparts.com and followed that and it helped a lot. The installation of the Baak exhaust was easy!:) if you cannot download the instruction you can give me your email address and I can send it to you!
manmeet sharma hi, the bars work great. They actually improves the handling in my opinion. I have not filtered too much with them but no problems yet even though they are quite a lot wider. The bars are from Baak as well.
David Dorricott the installation is easy. But more tricky to get the Catalyst converter off but it’s not a big problem. I found some instructions online and did it myself :)
@@gudbrandsrud that's good to know. They're definitely a potential future investment. I've just bought a used T120 and the previous owner was kind enough to fit an x pipe so I won't need to be messing around with it for a while.
Silvio d'Antonio , there is a dB killer inside the pipes. With normal calm riding the noise is not loud but when you open it up people will know that you are there. The sound is deep but not too noisy at all!!
gudbrandsrud Neat! is it still maneagable at highway speeds? Because i’m trying to find a cool exaust that doesn’t drive me crazy after a couple of hours of riding
Agreed. They do look badass. Unfortunately, the description at the BAAK website states that they will not work with factory heated grips. I want to keep the heat. So, that's pretty disappointing. I was hoping for badass plus warm hands.
Any noticeable horsepower gains from this system? BAAK has little specifics on their site. Thanks in advance.
How is the sound in terms of Police in Norway? Do you get pulled over by the noise? I really want this exhaust but afraid it is too loud..
Hello, Are those bars the Baak n1 bars or the flat track handlebars with the o22mm diameter, if they are how did you fit them on the bike? regards.
do you have to retune the bike?
have your pipes been rubbing against the rear stand and center stand? if so- how did you work around this?
Jake Sims , i removed the center stand. It does not rub against the rear stand

@@gudbrandsrud Was it easy to remove the stock pipes and fit the exhaust yourself? Any advice appreciated

@@gudbrandsrud If you could send to me by email, that would be great. tomgidley@btinternet.com
Did you notice a big difference in volume? I much prefer the tone of your setup but I'm wary of the volume...not keen on obnoxiously loud pipes 🤷♂️
Matt, I have exactly the same concern. Did you ever go for these?
Great sound.. I also really like the handlebars. How is the handling like with them and do they cause any issues during filtering through traffic

@@gudbrandsrud thanks 👍👍
Did you install also the BAAk handlebar? Great sound, much better than the original ones
Hernán Molina Acuña hi, yes, those are BAAK handlebars as well. :)
These pipes sound fantastic. Are they easy to install?

Is there some kind of db-killer you removed or Is this the sound the exaust makes out of the box? Seems quite loud to me

Could you describe the difference between your BAAK bars and the stock bars? Riding position, comfort, handling? Thank you for this great video.
Mark Mason hi, the handling is much better and much more comfortable due to the width of the bars.. They also look badaass!! :)
Agreed. They do look badass. Unfortunately, the description at the BAAK website states that they will not work with factory heated grips. I want to keep the heat. So, that's pretty disappointing. I was hoping for badass plus warm hands.
Mark Mason I believe it is possible still have heated grips. I just think you have to mos the handlebars a bit.
Yes, it is possible!
Are those bars from BAAK as well?
Mark Mason hi, Yes. Those are the flat track handlebars.
Do you have an X-pipe installed. Meaning...did you remove the catalytic convertor also?
Hi AJ Kolb. This is a full exhaust system so the cat is removed.
Holy shit
