Wanted to know how well the megaphone silencer has worked for people. My mechanic said that the stock ecu will be fine but on hitchcocks it says I need the power commander. Overall thoughts on sound, performance, mileage? Looking to put on a 2016 bullet 500 b5. Thanks.

Hi Vijay,
you might find this helpful, though it was posted a few years ago now.

Am interested in this but can not open the link. Is there any way to open the link. Is it possible to cut and paste the link and if so how is it done.

Right I have found how to open the links now using this older computer. I left click and highlight the link turns orange. Then I right click the highlighted link and select open link from the drop down box and it opens.
Brilliant. As strange as it sounds I discovered all this from rics answer to my question.
Thank you from binary.

Now I can hear the sound of the exhaust it is too noisy for me but the fellow has taken all the baffels out. Interesting to see that it has given him a bit more power just not sure about accelerating past 70 mph
on a standard Royal Enfield unit construction engine with such a free flowing exhaust and no work to richen up the fuel supply on the electronic fuel injection. Time will tell I suppose.

Watching that video is what gave me the feeling to get the exhaust! I suppose the o2 sensor could make the mixture rich because well, It's it job to adjust fuel supply. So I guess you're right, time will tell. If plug seems lean I guess I'll just put the baffles back in for some back pressure.

If Hitchcocks say it needs a Power Commander on a fuel injected engine you can take it that it needs a Power Commander.
