My black widow end can sounds like yours with the baffle in when my baffle is out . The only disappointment with black widow is that they etched not for road use onto the silencer . They never told me this in the description on the eBay ad. I rang them and they told me none of there exhausts are road legal. It’s really small and you wouldn’t notice it unless it was pointed out .
I would guess and say as long as you are not riding like you’re racing and you are not bouncing your bike off the redline, then I think you should be ok. I’m not sure the police are interested in small details like that. But that’s just my opinion, I do however completely understand your concern. Personally I have been riding with the baffle in and I can’t see why the exhaust I am using can’t be used on the road. There are loads of other bikes and cars on the road that are louder than my bike 😊 Have you gone back to stock or are you still using the Black Widow system?
Wow, that looks cool. Never heard of such an exhaust system with a very strange name in my opinion.)) I liked your way of using ties to tighten the springs.
Hello, thank you very much, it made putting the springs on much easier 😊 It’s certainly a brand worth considering if you are after an exhaust system - so far I have been very impressed!
Thank you! I’ll be putting a review together soon. So far I am very very happy! Such a fantastic addition to the bike 😊 Are you running a stock set up?
The black one does look very nice 😊 I think I’ll stick it on in a week or so and see which one I prefer. Would you consider an aftermarket set up on your bike?
The Black Widow exhaust are very good. I would definitely recommend checking out what they have to offer for your T7. Any idea on what style of silencer you are wanting? I’m hoping to get one for my CRF 🙏😊
Hello, I have not made any changes to the fuelling and I have had no issues at all. Everything is running perfectly fine 😊 As I have the baffle fitted I imagine it would pass an MOT. However as my bike is only a year old I have another 2 years before it’s first MOT. Do you ride a Transalp?
Hello 👋 I was very happy with the standard exhaust on the Transalp but I have always wanted a little more noise. So far I have been very very happy with this exhaust, I have nothing negative to say about it at all 😊 It is certainly worth a look for the CB. It has given the Transalp a whole new character and it makes it even more fun to ride 👌
If you’re looking for an exhaust for your bike cb500x I’ve got a used scorpion taper in silver that has done less than 5000 miles. It sounds awesome on the 500x pops and bangs on overrun and make the 500.
i have one to my sons benelli bn125.very good exhasut for the money.i m planning to buy the 2025 transalp.black widow in hexagonal brushed steel is the first modification i ll do.i ve read that if you put the full system exhaust,the ecu needs remaping.have you done that?or it works fine?any issues with fueling?
Couldn’t agree more! 😊 The Black Widow Exhausts seem to be fantastic value for money. The brushed hexagonal exhaust looks brilliant, it’s one I am interested in for my CRF. Are you thinking of a full system? I have not made any changes to the ECU and I am still running the stock air filter and I have had no issues at all 👌😊 The bike seems a little more lively, it seems to be a bit more perky higher in the rev range and a little smoother lower in the rev range. I hope this helps? 😊
I have not made any changes to the ECU and I am still running the stock air filter, I have not had any issues at all so far and I have covered around 1000 miles since fitting the Black Widow system 😊 Are you thinking about fitting a Black Widow system? I hope this helps…
Hi Marty 😊 I was expecting this exhaust to be a little loud on the motorway but it isn’t at all. It’s actually surprising calm when riding at a consistent speed. However it does get lively and louder when accelerating or riding enthusiastically 😊👌
Really looking forwards to your review. Anything that makes the Transalp more fun is fine by me. I installed those deflectors on my tall screen using your tutorial tonight and went for a very nice ride in the evening, here in Australia. Very, very nice. When you compare riding the Transalp to working I reckon the former is even nicer😂
@@Shaun-o1l Hi Shaun, sorry I thought I had replied to you. The review is coming soon 😊 I’m looking forward to seeing what others think… I’m glad you like the wind deflectors. They are a great piece of kit 😊 Simple to fit, look good, cheap (if you buy aftermarket ones) and they do a great job. What more could you want 👌😊
nice video. sounds good, i'd run it without the db killer. do you have an affiliate link for one of these? also any chance of a cheeky straight pipe sound test next time you swap it? 😂
Hello, thank you very much for the comment and feedback 😊 No unfortunately I do not have an affiliate link for the exhaust. However if you do order from Black Widow, please let them know you have seen this video / please mention this channel 😊 Thank you for asking though if I have an affiliate link, I appreciate the thought! Next time I swap it over I will if I remember yes 😊 I presume you are in the market for a new exhaust set up?
@TyresNTorque i probably will change the exhaust on mine at some point, but i do like to hear how they sound before hand. i think yours sounds great. so i had a look on their website, prices look good and i would be likely to go for a black widow now i've seen this video. if i go for one i'll definitely mention the channel. cheers
That’s a huge help, thank you so much! 😊 Would it be helpful if I put together a few comparison videos / sound videos over the next few weeks? Which one are you most keen on?
Missed opportunity there…You should have placed the black in there take a photo and then change to the silver so we could see what both looks like…. that is the reason why they sent you both.! 😅
That would have been a good idea! I will be swapping them around at some point and I will get some pictures up on here 😊 Do you have an aftermarket system on your bike?
Hello, thank you very much for your comment John 😊 I believe the police have bigger issues to be concerned over and unless you are riding irresponsibly or revving the bike up, I doubt there will be an issue. In terms of insurance if it’s stated on the insurance then it should be ok. 👍
@@TyresNTorque You would need tell your insurance company you have fitted a non-road legal exhaust; I doubt they will cover you; at least that is the way it is in the UK.
@@JohnSmith-gy8rc It’s certainly something to consider. I’m not sure why it’s not road legal - it doesn’t seem any different in terms of internals to any other aftermarket set up 🤔
My opinion is not that positive. Upgrading to an aftermarket exhaust, you do not have expectations just for an aggressive sound only, but for some specs before to buy. Searching at their web site you can see nothing except "Not street legal". Any specs about weight difference? Any specs about horsepower and torque? Any dyno graph? Nothing. So i am not going to spend even a cent for something that offers only sound (which is something that i do not like at all). So, good looking but no in deep upgrading. I will stay at the Remus option.
Hello, thank you for your comment. This video is an unboxing video and to give others an idea of sound difference. I do have a full review coming soon, so I have not gone into weight difference, fuel economy difference or power difference. Unfortunately thought I will not be doing any dyno runs. How do you find your exhaust from Remus?
I feel you don’t know much about tuning engines and if your trying to gain power exhausts are far from the best way to do it. Exhausts are pretty much just for the sound changes which brings a lot of people joy in hearing, you don’t have to spend your money on them but that doesn’t mean there a bad product.
@@TyresNTorque Remus is a real upgrading. You know the benefits of weight, power and torque before to buy. Basically, There are two types of exhausts for Transalp. Those who are compatible with aftermarket side cases and those who are compatible only with the OEM side cases. This something that any Transalp owner has to study before decide the available options.
@@Dylan-sw8jm I do not expect power from an exhaust. I just want to know just few measured specifications. Stock vs aftermarket. Power, torque, weight, db, and just a dyno graph to prove that this product is a real upgrade. By the way, i am an Volvo engineer specialist
There are so many exhausts out there for the Transalp all being slightly different. I think most people are wanting a little more noise from fitting a new exhaust and are not too bothered about adding a few bhp. But the reduced weight, power difference and better looks are definitely worth factoring into it 😊 The exhausts available from black widow are very good and as above I haven’t gone into detail on weight etc as I’m keeping that for the review video 😊 I’m glad you like your Remus exhaust. Are you running a full system?

Hello 😊 Thank you, I agree. It’s a great system and it gives the bike a whole new character - it’s fantastic!
Are you using an aftermarket setup?
@@TyresNTorqueyes I have a Leo Vince exhaust on my bike
Is that a full system or link pipe and silencer?
@@TyresNTorqueI have a full system
I bet that sounds good! Does that system have a removable baffle / DB killer?

I am now, I have a T7 with a delcovic can on and that sounds good, but now I'm thinking of a black widow for the transalp.
The Black Widow exhaust are very good. I would definitely recommend checking out what they have to offer for your T7.
Any idea on what style of silencer you are wanting?
I’m hoping to get one for my CRF 🙏😊
Beautifull.
Thank you very much 😊
Do you have an aftermarket exhaust on your bike?
@@TyresNTorque Not yet but I will have one.
CBR650
Are you interested in the exhaust on offer from Black Widow?
Nice job. I'm thinking about doing this but will do it next year after the current riding season finishes.
It’s definitely worth doing, it makes the Transalp even more fun to ride. I love it! 😊 Which style are you thinking of fitting Tony?
I'll do that, no problem 👍
Thank you so much! 😊
This video is amazing example how to do it and sands mint mate
Thank you Kieron. I’m glad you like it, sounds much better than stock 😊
@ yep I agree
Will this now pass an MOT and did you have the fuelling adjusted?
Hello, I have not made any changes to the fuelling and I have had no issues at all. Everything is running perfectly fine 😊

Thank you 😊 I’ll have to see what Black Widow say. I hope so! 🤞
Been thinking to upgrade my CB500x exhaust. But at the moment, I really happy with the sound and do not really what to mess arround with it.

@@TyresNTorque full system yeah.only with fuel system you find real difference,in sound and performance.so,no fueling issues...thats good.thanks
Please let me know what you decide on 😊
🏍️ 🤩
Do you need an ecu tune for the full exhaust?
I have not made any changes to the ECU and I am still running the stock air filter, I have not had any issues at all so far and I have covered around 1000 miles since fitting the Black Widow system 😊
Are you thinking about fitting a Black Widow system?
I hope this helps…
yes you do. Modern EURO5/5+ bikes run very lean and with little margin. Throwing away cat is drastic change for fueling and AFR.
My days of droning exhausts are done. Gives me a headache after a few hours at the open road speed limit. I find my stock pipe plenty loud.

I tried this on versys 650, after 30 minutes of riding my head started to hurt. Too loud.
Ohh no 😔 Have you considered the additional inlet baffle?
@TyresNTorque I cannot tell, bike wasn't mine, and I didn't pay attention. But anyways, not for me.
"not street legal" - your insurance will likely be invalid with this exhaust riding on public roads. I would not buy one for this reason alone.
