Re: Need my GZ Louder!!!

there is no hope if you are trying to get it to sound like a harley rumbling down the street.

if you want the same crappy sound only louder with a slightly different tone there is hope with universal mufflers.

i spent a lot of time trying to find pipes for the gz and after talking to people on here. and listening to some sound clips of this bike with new pipes, no thank you.

Re: Need my GZ Louder!!!

Yup, Danny is right. You have a single cylinder engine that produces a "thump thump" sound. You will never get a "rumble" sound out of it unless you buy two GZ's and tape them together!

I bought a EMGO muffler from JC Whitney and installed it last weekend. The sound is, in my opinion, much better - but at the end of the day it is just a lower pitched "thump thump".

:lol: if you tape two together :lol: i think it will only make twice as much of that horrible sound :puking: plus you would halve to one fat :curse: to be able to ride the thing.
