 FMF has a quiet silencer like you are talking about. "Powercore" right on it. I think its only that or a small one from Pro curcuit for after market stuff. I have Boysen Reeds in mine and have no problems. I also just put a factory pipe on it. (Got a sweet deal) The factory pipe is a little tamer and a little more quiet. Its not the real quiet type still. Just a little less, really loud and grunty, than the PC Platinum. I gave my FWW away. In my book, it has enough rotating enertia. Keep in mind there are ways to measure to know if you need to rebuild, for the same peace of mind. You'll need cash for tires and gas...... :-D

thanks for the reply's.

yes the stock pipe has been repacked, but the previous owner left it without packing for a while because it has stress cracks in it lol, for me a great excuse for a new one, but i don't want a loud bike if i can help it.

i'm looking for more mid/top, so the desert gnarly sounds like a good idea, and then the reeds and a reed spacer should make up a little bit of the lost low end

thanks for the advice guys  :-D
