Quieter Exhaust for 2016 F6B?

[willtill]

It would be interesting to see what height/brand of windscreens are being used in these "drone" situations. Until this weekend, when I install the TBRs, stock shield and stock (2013) pipes. No drone issue.

I didn't start hearing the drone until I installed the Madstad.

What's weirder is that if I wear foam earplugs with my 3/4 helmet; the drone is really irritating.

But....

If I'm not wearing earplugs, the drone is not bad but then I have the wind noise at speed.

Go figure....

Kind of the "same boat" for me..I do have a "slight drone" with the Cobra pipes at certain speeds. Not so much with the open face HJC 3/4 helmet but much more noticeable with the Shoei 3/4 and face shield down...After riding the bike, going on its 4th season, I am reasonably convinced the "drone" is a combination of the Baggershield and helmets...If I ride with no helmet and stock shield the "drone" is gone but the wind noise is terrible.....After all this time, I have become used to the sounds and plan to leave things alone. BTW, I cannot stand to wear any kind of earplugs as they drive me nuts...Had this issue for years however and my hearing to still pretty good at 77 years old!!!!......Ride safe

Interesting..... The reason I love my Madstad is that it removed all wind noise with my 1/2 helmet so I no longer wear ear plugs.
