    Anyone know exactly what the stock 8th gen. muffler weighs? It looks like it would weigh about 35#. If so, it's gotta go. I like quiet bikes but not heavy mufflers. Thanks.

    According to my good quality, digital bathroom scale, it weighs exactly 10.8 lbs. A carbon fiber Delkevic with the dB killer in would weigh about half, I would guess, and still be pretty quiet. (not the short 9" ones of course...those are louder)

    Thanks. Not enough weight for me to worry about.

    DriverDave is right, when I changed mine it weighed in at 4.96 kilos with the clamp which is 10.93 lbs.
