I'll try to send a picture; if if goes through it will be a first for me. The pipe is just a longer version of his standard 610 offering. I wanted it to be quiet, so I can slip through the Forrest with out any customer service from the authorities.
Hi there's a lot of time since last post. Anyway I'd like like to clarify and I've make this resume: FMF Q4… not street legal, and 96db I think is quite loud (650$) http://www.fmfracing.com/Products/MX/380 FMF power core 4 not street legal, and 96db… 600$ http://www.fmfracing.com/Products/MX/42 Comparison http://www.fmfracing.com/Products/BikeAsList/2011_HUSQVARNA_TE630 Wings: it’s seems right now they are only interested to make KTM’s exhaust… What do you think ? http://www.wings.si/ver3/index.html?page=about_us Barret Exhaust: DB / safe weight information? I can't find nothing about it… http://www.barrettexhausts.com.au/exhausts.html http://www.barrettexhausts.com.au/husky-shop.html (650$) ARROW –I lot of mates has voted it as the best configuration ever: arrows+new ECU+P/U kit (O2 sensor bypassed). But the price is outrageous : This is a local Spain Husqvarna dealer (price in €) http://endurorecambios.com/sistemas-de-escapes/10301-escape-doble-sm-te630.html Leovince… it’s seems has stopped making exhaust for almost all Husky models… am I right or maybe I’m looking at the wrong page ? http://www.leovince.com/us Regarding to list preference, mine would be: 1.- Reduce heat (as I think it helps engine’s performance, endurance and longevity) & not extra tune required 2.- Performance gains (not in the sense of HP increase but "engine enjoy feeling" .. not hesitasion, go fast from low to up rpm, etc) 3.- Sound level & tone (I’d rather go for a quite one) 4.- Cost 5. aesthetics 6.-weight reduction 7. right side muffler removal Which one would you recomend me? And, according to information above, does it means that right know we have only two options for TE630... Arrow or FMF ? Thank you
Looks like the FMF is currently the only choice for single pipe. I'm looking to get the Q4 to loose some weight but 850 Canadian $ is a bit pricey.
If you're looking for single pipe then it's FMF. I considered FMF, but I read that it's loud, so I bought Barrett Exhaust. Here in Indonesia, after shipping and import duty, Barrett is US$50 cheaper than FMF. It's loud but not too loud. It comes with a pair of tea strainers that were already in place (in the end of the pipes) and a pair of what they call optional baffles. During the first month I left the tea strainers in place, but then I removed them. IMO without the tea strainer (it becomes a straight through pipes) it sounds better and a bit louder. Before installing the Barrett exhaust I weighed them, but I can't remember the weight... It's not light though. It's lighter than stock pipes but not that much.
Yes, I have been thinking about it and now I think the best option for me is FMF Q4. BobPS, according to what Silverbullet said, is not so loud. Their Web says "Max Sound output 96dB; most models below 93dB" The point is how do we know if TE630 is among the models that are below 93db... I guess if Silver Bullet said is not so loud, then the TE630 exhaust will be among them
You will not be disappointed. Idle and normal throttle it is acceptably quiet, turn your wrist hard WOT it will bark but then so does the stock exhaust IIRC. Just ensure you keep the quiet insert installed and if you purchase a Powercore 4 you will need to purchase the quiet insert separately. I dislike loud pipes on and off road. I ditched my dual exhaust mostly to reduce heat, secondly for the 14 lb. weight savings and lastly because I found it mispriced on Ebay for only ~$230. Performance wise gains are minimal if any. Since cost was low I decided on FMF and keeping my stock exhaust intact just in case I will need it later. _
Okay, I got curious about Barrett Exhaust's weight, so I removed one pipe and put it on a bathroom scale. The exhaust weigh 2,5 kg ... so two of them weigh 5 kg.. that's 11 lbs.
Unfortunately it looks like they are all twins: https://www.gpr-motorcycle-exhausts...varna-exhausts/630-te-e-dot-i-dot-e-dot-2010-
Just installed the FMF Q4. It's indeed not louder than stock, which is great. The original mufflers, especially the left one, were very hot. The FMF, after a 30 min test ride was still lukewarm.
Brzoza, where did you buy the black bars for carrying the luggage. I'm looking for something easy, just like the one you have installed in your bike. Thanks
Here's a picture of my TE630 with Barrett exhaust on. I wear ear plugs most of the time, but when I don't wear ear plugs I don't find it too loud. Motranqui, if you're looking for racks for your TE630, one that I recommend is Barrett Product's rack...it's the same company that makes the exhausts. If you do order from them, get the Universal model...that way you can attach a Rotopax to the rack. I mistakenly order Standard model instead of Universal model, and I kinda regret it. I an and I'm going to have a Rotopax holder fabricated locally, it's just simple cross bar ... but it's something that I wouldn't have to do if I had ordered the Universal model.
OK, thank you, I appreciate your advice, BopPS I’m not in a hurry as now we are in winter time in Spain, so is cold out there. But for spring time, I will purchase one of those “side racks” because I want to go camping Which for me is weird, talking about Barrett racks, is that you have only the possibility to make the order on the phone, not through their web page. Please, look: http://www.barrettexhausts.com.au/racks.html As I have not total command of English language, I’m a bit of shy talking it, especially at the phone. Anyway, if finally I go for the Barrett ones, I’ll do my best on the phone
Hi Motranqui, You do not have to call them, you can place your order by email. If I remember correctly when I bought mine, I contacted them by email and told them what I need an asked them about shipping cost. Then they came back to me with shipping cost and total price I had to pay. Payment was made via paypal after they sent me a paypal payment request.
Thank you, Bob Ps May be in the past but now, their web page says that, concerning to racks, all the orders have to be placed to phone. Is quite, quite weird... I've made a "summary" about racks that are still waiting for "moderation aproval" in the thread "630 luggage" In principle I go for the dbz ones or Kriega ones, but I'm not 100% sure
Wow haven't seen this post in a while, dunno if anything from the older posts still applies as most of those aren't available anymore. I did try both the Leo Vince titanium single and the FMF Q4, I like the Leo's sound better but the FMF with the quiet insert isn't obnoxious. One thing to note is that most racks that are made for this bike is made for dual exhaust, so if you switch to single the rack will feel too wide. I got a Wolfman set and sold them cuz I felt it just stuck out too far. Now I'm using a rackless back system from Mosko Moto and it's awesome.
