OEM silencer repacking?

[edgar_kx3]

Im sure someone has repacked the Oem silencer. On the oem parts list it shows 2 premade things of packing, over 70 bucks a piece. Wondering if normal old packing would be ok?

ive always repacked my silencer with the cushion(packing) i by at the cycle shop for like 15 bucks.i have never had any issues with that. as long as you get all of it on the outside of the baffle and none gets through and impedes the airflow.  if thats what youre asking.

I've been using this...great stuff.

yea ive been waiting for a few weeks for fmf to get me a silencer. it was on back order and I guess there in no hurry to build more. was debating on trying to modify a Q stealth, was going to repack my stock one for now just because.

this is for a 300, I think you could cut the mounts off and reweld them. then use a part of the 500 silencer for fitment to the pipe.
I think it would make a good looking silencer.

you could definitely cut the mounts off and relocate them...
have you tried looking at any of the other places such as MotoSport, Rocky Mountain, BikeBandit, etc to see if they have any FMF silencers in stock?

no I am sponsored by fmf so I get a lot better deals direct from them. was trying to buy one of the 2.1 titanium ones but I guess there not available yet. may call and cancel my order Monday and try the Stealth out.

could care less about the spark arrested part just be cool not to have the same old silencer that they have made for 20 years.
