Quiet exhaust

Hello. I have what I think is an unusual question. Im looking for a quiet aftermarket exhaust for a 22 tracer 9gt. I have a 2015 fj09/tracer 9 that came with an arrow exhaust I love the sound for short rides or around town but on longer rides/tours it's way too loud.
I just bought a 22 tracer 9 and curious about an aftermarket exhaust to let it breath better, with a flash of course. But I'm going to be touring, so I don't want it too loud. I know to let it breathe better means more flow= less baffles= more noise.
I have heard other bikes/ engines and often like the yoshi or black widow sounds. I just sold my Super Tenère 1200 with a yoshi exhaust and liked that sound. Or should I just flash it stock?

Hard to say but if it was me I’d leave it stock for touring. A flash could possibly use more fuel or less?

Thanks. I had my ST1200 flashed and didn't really notice any difference in fuel economy. My 2015 tracer 9 fuel economy is great and the first 1000km on my 22 tracer has also been excellent so a little change wouldn't be a problem. Highway riding, I think I can easily get 300km on a tank. Our speed limits here in BC are 90-100km/h. Automatic 7 day impound if caught 40km/h over. Thanks again.

If you have access to a welder, you can open up the breadbox under the engine. I did this on my '22 MT09, and it has a nice rumble, but on WFO, it's not much louder than stock.

I say keep it stock, but get Vcyclenut to flash it to remove the restrictions and to improve fuelling/throttle. Then if you decide to get an exhaust later, he'll remap it for free.
Leo Vinces for these bikes are a quieter aftermarket option, the Yoshs are loud AF. Check Vcyclenut's Youtube videos - he measured the Yosh with db killer around 10db louder at full throttle than the LV without db killer.

Totally agree with this answer. Akropovic full race system is definitely on the loud side. Get a tune for the best engine management.
