CONSTRUCTION
The exhaust pipes are made of stainless steel for improved rust resistance.
A three-way catalyst is used for the front exhaust pipe assembly, helping to reduce emissions.

OPERATION
2-Way Exhaust Control System
In order to maintain quietness, and allow for high exhaust efficiency and high engine power output, a 2-way exhaust system is used for the main muffler. A control valve is used inside the main muffler to open the exhaust gas passage using the exhaust gas pressure. The control valve closes at low engine speeds by means of a return spring.
