Alright...these videos are less than thrilling but using the same sound meter at the same distance in the same circumstances I recorded an Idle of approximately 112 Decibels with no insert.  With the insert installed at idle the reading was approximately 100 Decibels.  A 12 Decibel reduction is pretty significant.

Installation was extremely simple and took only a few moments and did not require you to remove the exhaust, simply remove three screws, apply the insert and put the screws back in place.

Without Insert:

I have yet to take it for a ride but will be tomorrow when I go to work.  Don't get me wrong, the exhaust sounded great without the insert but it made earplugs a necessity at all times.  Looking forward to how it sounds a feels tomorrow.

PS  I'm really sorry, I tried to figure out how to post these videos correctly and I wasn't able to.....

I never did a decibel reading with the stock exhaust, and yes, the CW exhaust is very loud...the insert in my opinion is almost a necessity.

I noticed the baffle makes it sound more tuned..... [beer]

Agreed...the exhaust is perfect in my opinion now.  Sound level is still louder than stock but instead of a loud roar you get that trademark Ducati sound. 

I am very happy with it now!!!

I can't wait!!!  I just got an email from CW and they are shipping the exhaust tomorrow.  I am giddy with anticipation!!!!  ;D

PS  Not trying to threadjack but I just got a recall for our bike today, 2011 and 2012 Evo...rear rim prone to the spoke's cracking and they are gonna replace the rear rim with a new one with higher specs....stay safe Sir

Chris

FYI  when you have them replace the rear rim, make sure you get it back with the red ducati stickers on the rim.  I know this may sound trivial but when I had mine replaced they didn't have the stickers and it was the first thing I noticed.  I still don't have them and it catches my eye every time I look at the bike.

Thx, I had my rim replaced.  Same thing, they said they didn't have the stickers.  For whatever reason Ducati makes the dealer order them separately.  Suffice to say I made the dealer order them for me and put them on.  Go back and make them do it, that is part of the recall and was free...AS IT SHOULD BE!!!!!  The stickers actually add a lot and I would be pissed!!!!!

Fireman, that's Bad Ass Sir!!!  I'm loving my exhaust with the silencer in, sounds great!!!  I also just ordered the CW Fender Eliminator, a Smoke Motodynamic Integrated tail light and removed my passenger pegs.  The Fender and Light should be delivered today but I work tonight, so I hope to install them when I wake up tomorrow!

Did you put the stock exhaust back on when you brought your bike in for the service? Did they say anything about warranty or is it fine?
