Triumph Bonneville: Let's RUIN Our Exhausts (ON PURPOSE)!

In today’s video I’m going to be modifying the exhaust pipes on my Triumph Bonneville, aka performing the "Bafflectomy", a free motorcycle mod that makes your Triumph Bonneville's exhaust sound better.

The first step is to make sure you’re well equipped. Here is what you’ll need to complete the bafflectomy:

A good drill https://amzn.to/41zUKHI
1.25″ Hole saw (get at least two, maybe three) https://amzn.to/48b1b6B
Drill bit extension set https://amzn.to/480Ethv
5/8″ Dowel https://amzn.to/3GSK79F
Table lift (optional) https://discount-ramps.sjv.io/motorcy...
Other common shop stuff supplies
WD-40
Saw
Drill bits
Rubber mallet or hammer
Magnet
Pliers, etc.

Welcome to the third episode in my series comparing my Triumph Bonneville vs my Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 vs my Moto Guzzi V7 where we are going to figure out what is the best mid-size retro motorcycle (for me).

Today we’ll be looking at:
• What is a Triumph Bonneville bafflectomy?
• How to do a Triumph Bonneville bafflectomy?
• How does it sound and run once done?

I’m doing this exhaust modification in hopes of getting a little more noise, base, and character out of my Bonneville, because character is one of the areas the Bonneville is lacking in this competition against the V7 and even the Interceptor.

I’m also doing this Bonneville mod because I have a maximum budget that I’m allowed to spend on each motorcycle in this competition. I only have $220 left to spend on the Bonneville, and this mod is free!

If you're interested in retro motorcycles, Bonneville mods, or free motorcycle mods in general, this video is for you.
