Does An $1,800 Honda Navi Really Need A $500 Yoshimura Exhaust??
Вставка

- Everyone knows that Yoshimura makes some of the best motorcycle exhausts in the game, BUT is it REALLY worth dropping $500 on their new Honda Navi exhaust when the Navi itself only costs $1,800?! I guess I'll let you decide...

Yooooo you’re from Maryland??????
I'd be pretty undecided too on it, would make me feel pretty self-conscious every time I went for a ride, but think of it this way, at least people that didn't see you before on your little Navi, they'll definitely *hear* you! 😃
Oh they’ll DEFINITELY hear me now! I wish video did justice to how crazy this little thing sounds now 😂🤘🏻
I'm having flashbacks of modding my Ruckus 15 years ago.... It might seem crazy expensive and pointless but at the time, it was a lot of fun. I miss that bike (not the lack of power though).
Small bike, big sound 🤙🏼
YUUUGE sound 😅😂🤘🏻
Heyy! Great video as usual.
I met some of your friends at a Cycle Gear. I could not believe it!
I just wanted to let you know that you're the reason I'm getting into motorcycle.
I'm starting my MSF course soon and I'm very excited.
Anyway, keep it up man. You're awesome.
I just purchased my 1st bike/scooter Honda navi now that I watch you’re vids they going to help me out so much keep up the content 🤝
Literally put one on today. It’s loud for sure. Is it worth the money? I’d say yes. Sound, looks, weight, performance was improved. Stock topped out at 48mph. With the Yoshimura pipe I felt more pep off the line and hit 53 mph today on flat ground. I’m 6’1” 187lbs. I was not fully tucked and no windscreen. I Put the silencer in tonight. Will try tomorrow.
I’m loving the Navi videos! Keep it up Burch!
Y’all I could hear him all the way down the street😂😂😂
R.I.P. the neighbors’ eardrums 😅😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Thanks for ur video i literally just put it following ur steps and it’s awesome
Wish some my neighbors were as conscientious as you when it comes to their exhaust/mufflers. Thanks.
I like the Yoshi pipe on it and I’m glad to see I’m not the only lunatic who parks his bike in the living room 😂
@@ZREXER1250 I rented a mobile home and used to to rebuild bikes and scooters during the winter, the owner got PISSED when he found out about it. I didn't make a mess though I had tarp and cardboard on the floor. Just the smell of oil and gasoline lingered.
When one of my scooter's exhaust needed to be replaced, I only had an $8 lawn mower muffler handy. It looked stupid, but sounded just like this!
Another great video Mike!
Just installed my Yoshimura exhaust on my Navi. Without any additional inserts, it's SO loud! It rattled my brains on my ride to and from work...and rattled the header nuts right out... Silly me didn't check a torque spec, just cranked em down with my ratchet. Looks like you bought the spark arrestor. Yosh sells a silencer too. I'll be buying the silencer for sure.
The plus side of losing the header nuts is that it gave me a reason to order additional parts since I was already paying for shipping. Bought a Ranger Green headlight surround and silver lower covers from the Ranger Green model (mine is N U T Brown)
Silence with good performance is KING, - I’ll use the $500 for funding my riding adventures. THANKs for CVT and shock mod vids, they RULE THE Day !!!
If you want it a bit more bearable You could always buy an aftermarket ebay silencer that instead of on the muffler it fits in the header where the muffler connect. Not sure which type since there are a ton of different styles and types of universal fitting and shapes not sure how it would affect the Navi 🤔
I'd go back to stock or see if they have a different silencer because the pipe looks really good on the Navi. Those little single thumpers have a sound to them that is hard to make better. They tune the sound so good in house that aftermarkets usually don't pan out too well unless you want to wear earplugs every time you ride.
Unfortunately this is the only silencer they offer for this muffler 😅 I agree that single thumpers are the WORST for getting any kind of manageable sound out of! My Grom is surprisingly quiet for having an aftermarket exhaust, especially compared to other Groms, so I had hope for this one too. I really want to make it work though because the Yoshi pipe just looks sooo dang good!! 😩
@@LifeOfBurch It is a gorgeous pipe and really finishes the bike off nice. I totally agree when you said in the video how it showcases the single swingarm so good. You may get used to it. When I picked up the Honda Fury it seemed really loud to me at first but now after 5 months I'm used to it....or a little deafer... LOL.
@@LifeOfBurch Did you get the silencer separate, or it comes with it?
@@pmontero13 I bought it separately. This is what I ended up with for the best volume- www.yoshimura-rd.com/collections/all/products/spark-arrester-kit-rs-2-mini-muffler-1-550-ring-sa-23-k
@@LifeOfBurchdo you know if I'll work on a 2023 navi
Dude we have the exact same bikes 😎 white 15 grom and brown 22 Navi gotta love Honda minis with Yoshimura exhausts
Dude I like most of your videos and am almost for sure getting a navi or 2 in part cause of your videos ! Now that being said I absolutely love the sound of an awesome loud engine like the rebel 1100 but if it sounds like a super loud fart mobile like some imports. Absolutely prefer it just be quiet, especially if it costs a 3rd of the bike 😂. At any rate though, very informative as usual to not do it my case at least. Thanks!
Hey, thats me! haha! Great video as always!
Currently saving up for a Navi! Currently half way there. I'm so excited!
Yoshi pipes sounds so good! 😎👌
Ayy that’s sick man!! You’ll have your Navi before you know it! What color are you going with? 🤔
Dont pay more then 2500
They will try to over charge you
Stand firm
Hey Burch I’m new to riding can’t decide to buy a Navi or Grom never ridden before like the video’s
@@dravengore9475, don't pay more than $2300.
Did you get it?
Great video Burch !!! 🤙🏽
Thanks Marvin! 😎🤘🏻
Looks & sounds great 👍
Love the montage video's mate
Man just put a Yoshi exhaust on the Navi 😭😭 can’t wait to see the race!!
World’s slowest race incoming!! 😎🤘🏻😂
I would've painting the tubes with VHT black, would look great
Yup, I sold my yoshi that I had on my grom for the same reason, too damn loud. Went back to stock, even tho too quiet it doesn't hurt my ears.
Put some glasswool and baffle in the exhaust. Will make a much better sound.
You can also put a pipe inside the silencer, thats slightly longer than the silencer, pushed in the muffler. Will also sound better.
I waited to order the baffle. I regret the volume but it sounds so good!
Probably means that stock the intake is the limiting factor on power. A drz400 gains very little from a pipe unless you do the 3x3 and rejet. 3x3 refers to removing the snorkel from the airbox and enlarging the hole to 3"x3".
A UNI filter and upjet is mandatory for a 50cc
Mine was $2900 out the door, so an extra $500 isn't too bad to be heard. Could save your life some day
The Yoshi RS2 for the Navi weighs 5.0 lbs. total, and removes 6.4 lbs. of useless Honda scrap metal. To make sure you don't need to go up in carb jet size, keep an eye on the condition of your spark plug by checking the tip every +/- 100 miles a few times and if it looks pretty good then drop it down to every +/- 500 miles). It will let you know visually if the Yoshi exhaust has allowed enough increased airflow to result in your AFR running leaner (too lean?) with the new exhaust. This also may be why your "butt dyno" feels like the Navi might be a tad bit less responsive to increased throttle. I'm sure the guys at the Scooter Swap Shop could give you some input also.
That's been my issue with essentially all exhausts I've put on my bikes: they're all too loud. I want an exhaust that's a bit louder than stock, but no matter if I've gone with FMF, Two Bros, Akrapovic or Yoshimura they're all absurdly loud. It's a shame you have to choose between a wheezing stock exhaust or a loud as shit hooligan exhaust. Finding the sweet spot in between these two extremes is very difficult, and every time you try a new exhaust that claims to be less loud you end up spending like 500 dollars only to find out they were lying.
Yea I’ve found that to be mostly true with single cylinder, small CC bikes. It’s nearly impossible to keep them tame, especially once the cat is removed and you’re having to pin it wide open to keep up with traffic. For the Rebel 1100 I’ve found that there’s tons of options that are actually too quiet for my liking 😳 I think lots of it just depends on the bike, and in the Navi’s case I don’t know if anything will be quiet enough to be bearable for me long term.
@@LifeOfBurch You're certainly right about it mostly being an issue with smaller one cylinder bikes. The ones that I've had issues with have all been 400 cc or smaller: a Grom, a CB300F, a Duke 390 and a DRZ400SM.
Someone said the reson for this is that the exhaust manufacturers can't afford to to make a bunch of different size mufflers for all different types of engine types and sizes, so they end up selling a can originally designed for a 400-500 cc engine for bikes as small as the 110 cc Navi.
Buy a mivv exhaust
Try Black Widow?
@@LifeOfBurch Jesus, so I live in a quiet neighborhood and am planning on buying a Navi to commute to and from work. My first plan was an exhaust swap. Should I just skip that then?
Awesome ordered mine . I will go with silencer.. keep the videos coming.. did u feel a different with new exhaust?
Make it loud baby!
Great video !!!
Great video 👍🏼
@lifeofburch, did the new muffler add any speed on your top end? It seems to have added 4 MPH to the top end on mine. Did you do the race?
There is no justice.... the yoshi is insane . My bike sounds like a machine gun on deceleration. So far I have the yoshi with mnnthbx intake and it's amazing... BUT.. go clutch and variator work and then it's on ! Yes it's a small bike and work to get it here , so go big if you want to get nuts.. or navi to have fun working on it
I have the Yoshimura R-34 on my Rebel 500 and love the shit out of it.
I left mine on love it
Hey I was wondering what ended up being quieter between the silencer or spark arrestor on the Navi exhaust? And did it get rid of the flames and the back firing?
You should do the scooter swap shop navi carburetor upgrade. really wake up the navi with the new exhaust
It doesn’t but it makes it much more entertaining to ride. I just hope you don’t get worse gas mileage. I put a Leo Vince GP Corsa Full System Exhaust on my 2015 honda pcx and it dropped me like 15mpg.
Ooo yea I hadn’t thought about that. I haven’t been seeing anywhere near the claimed MPG as is. But then again for this area you really have to keep it pinned wide open to get anywhere, so I guess that’ll do it.
Was the yellow on the bolts from something you did before or to help us see in the video? If it was to help us see that is such a genius idea!
Bro I just watched the video you made a year ago where to got swamp a** on the grom and found it hilarious, did you manage to go full time with youtube like you mentioned in the video? Always wanted a grom and yours looks amazing in white 😁😁
Hahah I forgot about the swamp ass video!! I am indeed full time on UA-cam now, but it was more of a “fate” thing. I lost my job last April and just said YOLO and went for it! I’m broke as hell, but happy as hell 😂🤘🏻
LOVED Nina’s expression!!
I will bet there are jet kits for the Navi or a complete carb that will give you even better performance.
I hate being super loud, riding a thumper with a cvt I would be so self conscious LOL. On my VFR at least I know some people like the sound 😅
You should of bought Merritt Billy Perry grips. They're wicked.
Nail polish would cover the chiped paint.
I just recently replaced my navi stock exhaust with Vance & Hines exhaust and noticed it's not getting the top speed. What am I missing? It acceleration seems fine on take off but starts to top off around 35mph any advice?
It's popping because now it's running lean with the bigger exhaust !!! You need to up the jet sizes...pilot and main !!!
So I put mine on and it definitely hurts my ears to ride does the sound restricter/baffle bring it down considerably? Or only a little ? Do you drive yours on the road? I can’t really tell through the video a sound difference
in my experience, every aftermarket exhaust has different character (low-mid-high sound) but in 1 cylinder bike they have 1 problem: loud 😂😂
Big big fan of the small bike life
with or without the silencer i didn't notice a single difference by watching it from the video, maybe it's different when you're actually there(?)
if you take it off ill buy it from you haha =) nice Navi video like always!
Aww man wish they had hooked it up with that keychain for the orders I put in
I wonder if there's a $100 amazon option, put a little shorty muffler on my crf230, such fun.
You should do a performance difference video with it like you have in past videos.
I mentioned that in the outro. That’s coming in the stock Navi vs modified Navi race video 🤘🏻
To weigh light things on a bathroom scale, you weight yourself, then hold the thing your weighing an weigh yourself again. Wb-Wa=Wc
Anyone in the LoB community know of a brown seat and brown grip combo for a Rebel 1100 ? I'm struggling to find any brown seats for a 1100 other tha the Honda diamond stich one.
Sounds great to me but I also love loud bikes lol.
Who cares what people think about a Yoshimura exhaust on your Navi! I think it’s cool, and besides do it makes you happy life’s too short it’s your life your journey you add value not peoples opinions, but like I said, I think it’s cool, so that’s positive the sound helps. Keep you safe it save me a couple of time also wear earplugs if it’s too loud for you at the CMSP training, they tell you where your plugs to protect your hearing. Besides, that’s why they call it “customizing” when you add your own personal touch. It’s a personal to you. And if you don’t like the logo on that piece of metal, paint over it., That’s custom! 😊 nice video! This stuff is cool! Yo, Yoshi quality for sure!!!
Where in Calif can you find a Navi for list : or anywhere close.
BTW, are there 50-50 dual sport tires available for the Navi ? That would be my last mod for a multi use Navi. That would be a “ good before vs after “ vid given that you use the Navi for off road/trail fun, - just saying…. JP
Hotlap type 666 is a better choice.Hand made ,super quality, actually adds performance, and less money. No extra cost for silencer insert either.
The pie cut header pipe, with its welds (apparently) not ground smooth, does not match up with Yoshimura's usual high end fit and finish.
Make sure you're keeping all the old parts - at some point I'll find a Navi frame and come to your house to buy the rest of the pieces :D
Oh my gosh, dude! 😮
👍🏻
Hey Burch, or anyone on this thread. Has anyone else had issue with the gas line appearing close to the exhaust?
I'm thinking that the muffler is only friction fitted into place may have something to do with noise volume. Mainly that it isn't sealed. Anyone driving a car with an exhaust leak can attest to the increased noise 🤔
Vance and Hines is supposed to have a version 2 out for the Navi early March.
Hopefully the don't jack the price up .
Yea apparently some people said their V2 has already been shipped out. I guess they (rightfully) are getting it to the people whose V1 broke, before making it available to the public. That whole ordeal left such a bad taste in my mouth that I’ll never put a V&H on here though. It wasn’t just the flanges cracking off, some people’s mid pipes cracked and others had the baffle break off and shoot out the muffler. They rushed it too much trying to be first to market instead of focusing on quality. Maybe I’ll change my mind once I see the new and improved pipe though, who knows 😅😂
Nail polish works good for scuffs like that.
hear it too,, can yoiu get a different baffle that bit bigger internally,,
Grom or Navi, and why? Looking to buy one or the other just to go around town and have fun with.
Ok yeah, it sounds really good
Did you install the egr block off plate from sss for the navi during this install?
No, I’m still not entirely sure what the purpose of that is lol
This sounds identical to my crf110 with an fmf exhaust lol
Perfect vihicle
I'm thinking go up a jet size for the Main jet, leave the pilot jet so it can still pop and if you run it on a higher octane, it will weirdly be quieter as well, but you may want to go up two main jet sizes (possibly)
But a $500 exhaust on a $1800 bike... people put $1000 exhausts on $5000 bikes... and they aren't even legal! at least when it is exempt from Emissions laws due to it's size in the first place. it makes more sense to put the exhaust on it that a bigger bike that MUST have to original exhaust with the cat and all that crap!
Yes
This engine same with honda beat in asia, there tons of racing part for this kind of engine here in indonesia,
I want to know where can I find those handle bars :)
can you gimme a link for clutch and other mods?
Wish I would've gotten. This for 200 more than my pos vance hynes that has broken twice 😢
I’m going to leave stock exhaust. I did intake, clutch, variator and buying the R1 camshaft and calling it a day. My Grom is loud asf and gives me a headache.
I love it if you decide not to keep it on would you consider selling it.The reduce weight alone . Should be more efficient speed I would love to have one for my Honda Navi. I do not have $500 to buy one maybe I could buy used one
Does it give it any more speed??
I like how quiet my navi is.
Hey Burch, thanks for the rad review. We do make a spark arrestor for the RS-2. Shoot us your addy and we will send you one to try.
BTW do you live in a Country Club?
I appreciate the offer, but I already have a spark arrestor/silencer in this. I mentioned buying it and showed its box at the beginning of the video actually. I bought it directly through your website and installed it at 13:23 in this video. There’s even clips in this video comparing the sound with the spark arrestor vs without lol
@@LifeOfBurch What you had installed in is a low volume insert. We can send you a spark arrestor that should lower the volume even more if you shoot us your address in a Insta DM.
@@YoshimuraUSA interesting…I assumed we were talking about the same thing since what I have is the only insert listed on your website for the Navi. I’ll DM you guys now!
@yoshimuraUSA @LifeOfBurch
Would it work for a 2023 Navi? Your website says I won't. Only 2022, I have been looking, but there's no difference
@@pmontero13 yes it will fit
Im just waiting for the first big bore kit ,dont know why is taking so long to come out .
I have my Harley when I want to be loud and my Honda Monkey when I want to be all stealth like. I ride all sorts of places on the Monkey that I shouldn't... I don't want to draw any extra attention when riding nature trails that I shouldn't be on. Lol
I want a Navi pretty bad...been trying to trade my 2010 Buell blast for one straight up
Pretty slick but probably not great for stealthy navi shenanigans 😆
I like the look of the Yoshi exhaust just worried its going to be too loud for ripping around the neighborhood, I don't want to be that guy, If I'm going to be loud its going to be a car or truck
It literally sounds exactly the same with or without a silencer
Pretty much 😂
Talk to the company and see if they offer, or could make you a quieter silencer.
Do you still ride the green one?
