Chicken wire helps :yes:
Roll some up and stuff it up the exhaust pipe. I'm serious!

1st time I have heard of Screaming Eagle's on a gn 250.:confused:
Chicken wire does work, you have to wind it up pretty tight though. Winding it on a thin piece of dowel is the easiest way to get it right.:Punk:

Whats a dowel? I assume this is a kiwi term I'm not familar with? Or something I simply have no idea what it is.

Dowel is a round length of wood, you can get it from a hardware shop.

Ah so you get the wood, wind chicken wire super tight around it, and then slide the wood off and shove it down the pipe?

works better if you shove it down the pipe then get the wood out , but you have the general idea

Yep - SE2's unbaffled make your bike loud, obnoxious and gutless BUT with the Thunder Baffles they are grouse ! They give it a bit of back pressure for performance and still sound loud and obnoxious ! Your neighbours will love it.
Of course this applies to a Big Twin or Twin Cams sorry mate. Don't think the GN250 will cut the mustard.

Of course I didn't want them for my gn. Have put them in the 1200 and yep they sound grouse - and the bikes:scooter::scooter: running sweet. Will need earplugs for longer trips though!!

Correct. It is regularly used to build Hondas.
