Great vid! How many pounds in weight did you save versus the stock set-up?
Thank you Burch
Finally a decent review on TBR for the 1100, people dropped the ball on this, Burch to the rescue
Ayy gotta give the people what they want! Haha
For anyone not in the know, decibels are logarithmic, so an increase of 3 decibels is double the sound intensity and a decrease of 3 results in the sound intensity being halved. For comparison, a jet engine is around 120 and a baby crying is about 110. So now you can roughly gauge how loud it is :)
Good point ... but the doubling/ halving is 6dB, not 3dB.
@@dftweedie3021 i thought it was 10db?
Juan & Spoof. It depends if we are talking perceived or physical loudness. Studio engineers generally rely on the physical measurement of RMS energy as that is the most accurate way to measure Sound Pressure Level (SPL). It is exposure to SPL over extended time that can damage your ears.
Poll: Is 3 dB, 6 dB or 10 dB SPL double the sound pressure?
This is not a trick question. This is not about the subjective perceived loudness of hearing and not how to add sound sources. SPL is the abbreviation for "Sound Pressure Level". The term loudspeaker and amplification is not specifically raised with the previous survey. It's all about sound pressure the most important sound value.
There is only one correct answer: Twice the sound pressure is an SPL of +6 dB.
@@dftweedie3021 the correct answer is 3 dB(A) to double the SPL. 6 dB(A) is the change in SPL if you double the distance from the source of the sound( 100 meters to 200 meters). To the majority of people 10 dB(A) is the subjektive doubling of the sound.
Man, this is a conversation and a half. Great discussion guys :)
Anything over 85 decibels over a certain amount of time, OSHA recommends ear protection. I’m 60, been riding off and on all my life, I have hearing loss and tinnitus. Just a cautionary tale, I would recommend wear hearing protection. But I know most young riders won’t think that this is important. I enjoy your videos. Waiting for my Rebel.
I am a minimalist, so I keep things stock. Looking forward to seeing your next mods for this bike to make me change my mind.
I’ve definitely thought about getting hearing protection, but need to make sure I can still hear what’s going on around me. I know it’s the smart thing to do, but I’m not always the smartest hahah I definitely appreciate you saying that though! And definitely stay tuned for more mods on the way!
@@luko560 Yep, I've never ridden without ear plugs. I don't know how people do!
@@luko560 yes, it’s the wind noise that is my problem. I ride with Bose IQ 20 wired earphones. Cuts the wind noise down to almost nothing and I can hear everything still. Earplugs have a NR rating. Earplugs reduces certain frequencies and yet allows you to still hear. If you would not be able to hear, they would not be recommended by OSHA or the Department of Defense. But this is my personal issue and I think I have said enough, lol. Ride safely.
@@LifeOfBurch get motorcycle earplugs by Earpiece.com . Been using it for a few months and honestly a big step up from foamy earplugs. They keep the pressure neutral and block wind noise while allowing sirens. One thing is that they allow deep rumbling sounds to pass through so that might get tiring after riding a long time with a loud exhaust, but I have yet to try that myself.
@@LifeOfBurch motorcycle specific earplugs are designed to limit noises you dont need like wind noise while still keeping the important ones for you to hear, so you still hear traffic, your engine, car horns etc.
I’ve got an 1100 myself and have been on the fence about the two brothers or Vance and Hines and this one did it for me. I’ll definitely be getting the two brothers. Great video! Keep it up
Don’t have a bike but I still watch and like every video cause you’re just a cool dude. Been here since like 1k followers nice to see your growth keep it up bro
Silencer approved! You bring the quality every time Burch. Keep up the good work man
Again, the best content presentation for the rebel 1100! Thank you!
Man I’m glad you went with the two bro’s racing exhaust, over the V&H! I really like the way it sounds!!!
Awesome! This is what I’m planning to put on mine when I finally get my Rebel.
You definitely won’t regret it! I’m blown away!
with silencer sounds really good and right on that sweet spot of volume, very nice work!
@LifeOfBirch just brought the TBR low mount exhaust based on your opinions and videos for my Rebel 1100 and I just wana say thank you for your videos. Love you work mate, and the exhaust man I'm sold I LOVE IT, IT SOUNDS AMAZING! Totally worth the purchase all the way from New Zealand 🇳🇿 cannot wait for summer!
You made a great choice in Two Brothers Racing! I have it on my Sportster, and absolutely Love it!
Such a high quality, good sounding exhaust! 🙌🏻
What was your solution when putting the passenger foot peg on?
duuuude! dream bike for me and that exhaust makes it sound sooooo nice!
Just received and installed mine. I just painted the hardware with high heat flat black grill paint. Looks right.
Been waiting for this bad boy. It's called a baffle/db killer. Respect from the UK bro 🤟🤟🤟
Ayyy first comment! 🏆 🤘🏻
Another great review, thank you. I definitely like it without the silencer, just sounds to stock to me. Really love the two brothers exhaust, looks amazing. Unfortunately I have nothing but runarounds with their customer service. Your bike is coming together looks great!
Glad you liked the video, and definitely agree that for me no silencer is the way to go!
Love your sweater bud. I struggled to pause the video in the right place to read what you have written on the back, but it was worth it.
13:42 - Owen Wilson mode just kicked in ~ WOW ~ lol congrats on the new exhaust bro!
Hahah thanks dude! 🤘🏻
Great video! we here at Viking bags really appreciate your content!
u killed it broth...im in love with this bike
Great review and wonderful sound out that upgraded exhaust 🎥❤️🚀👍🔝✊🔥
I knew you would get the TBR before you even got this bike. You already gave enough hints at the Honda Rebel group on Facebook :D
I like it! Glad you're enjoying the bike. I hope you're doing well and your depression isn't hitting you too hard lately. You sound way more enthousiastic than when you've started vlogging with your ex.
Thanks man! I’ve been doing SO much better lately! I for sure had a pretty bad slump last year when I was in the thick of everything, but honestly life is better than it’s ever been recently. I’m glad that’s showing through my videos! I appreciate you checking up on me brotha. This little UA-cam community continues to blow me away with the love and support I get! 🙏🏻
Got mine last week. love it. Like to get the silencer too. Thanks for sharing!
"WHAAAAOOOOO" merch when? haha. love it man
Looks like the TBR with the baffle in is great for driving in neighborhoods. It's quiet at low rpm but becomes progressively louder as you rev it up.
The pipe looks and sounds great. I would definitely stick with the baffle, great rumble but not over-the-top loud.
Exactly what I did is just fine with the Baffle don't need it any louder ..
Great video, love the rumble. 👍
Man, that sounds awesome! But yeah it's definitely louder, I'd keep the silencer on. 😎
the pure enjoyment on his face is the best
Great vid, fantastic exhaust! The cheapy you had on first probably caused an over-lean mixture which would affect the running. Even without the baffle (it's what we call them in the UK) you'll have significantly more back pressure and the motor will run much happier - might explain why you felt a little bit more power. Either way, your bike will love you for it. Keep up the great work with the vids - I'm subscribed!
P.S. I'm curious to know, did you keep the baffle in - or take it out again?
That vid just got me subbed. All reasons are well shown in the vid. That's exactly how I'd want my Rebel1100 to be. 100%.
Ayy thanks for subscribing! I appreciate you!! 🙏🏻
@@LifeOfBurch double appreciation back, Thx for compiling this review so well making it nice to watch and awesome to listen. I *couldn't* agree *more* about the sound this crossplane 1100 engine has now with this pipe w/ silencer. U said it 100% precise man. INVU
I'm literally watching this, yelling at my husband about how good it looks and how badass it sounds. I ordered the exact one a month ago (thanks to your video where you talked about it! You should get a sponsorship ;) )
About the passenger seat and pegs, I didn't hear back from you. I'm not firm on the price.
I love it, keep the silencer in. It sounds amazing
Great video, again. Thank you and greetings from germany
Heyo!!!! Good video yo!!! Hope all is well.... See ya on your next video
UA-cam REAAAALY wants me to rewatch this video.. like, it keeps popping up on my home page suggestions...
So here I am.. good video.
sounds good even with the silencer. i personally would keep it in!
I was waiting for this my friend 😉 very nice sound. Maybe the rebel 1100 is my next bike next to my vfr800 😀
That sounds perfect! As soon as I sold my VFR800 I started missing it 😔 I’d love to have another in the future!
@@LifeOfBurch vfr's are quite cheap so you could have another one any time. Don't worry about people didn't like the contents with the vfr you just should have ride it and don't give a toss what others saying. I was thinking to get a cruiseer bike because the vfr makes me go silly speed sometimes 🙄 you know when the vtec kicks in 😂 The rebel it's a more relaxed laid back bike don't encourages you to ride like a twat 🙈 just cruising.
It's so hard to have only 1 bike because every bike is different, so thats why I planning to keep my vfr as well.
Keep up the good work mate and all the best 👍🏼
Great review.
Sound was awesome without silencer and frankly I never once contemplated actually installing the silencer on any slip on I.ve installed. First Two Bros. was on my current VStrom 1000xt and from now on it'll always be Two Bros. for me on any bike provided they make one for the application. Had a few Yoshi and Two Bros. is the only one where performance was noticeably improved as you noticed. Seriously thinking about a Rebel 1100 soon. Ride safe!
I went with the GP Shorty last time after I saw that last video on it. Love it.
Liking the channel Burch. You do well. I have been thinking about a bike for a long time and I'm just about convinced an 1100 is MY ticket. Manuel of course, (old school...LOL) Tossed in a like and subbed up, and of course thanks man.
Ayy thanks for liking and subscribing! That means the world to me! I’m obviously biased, but I think the manual 1100 is the way to go for sure! Such a fun, capable bike. You’ll love it!
@@LifeOfBurch Now the waiting game comes into play....dem things are high dollar right now and no dealer is gonna lower prices for a while. It's ok, when the stock begins to build up will take another look
Nice bike! Ride safe.
Absolutely, Indeed Brother! I Love it!!! I went from the Shorty GP to This TBR Exhaust. It Improved Everything! More power, Throttle Response, Gas Mileage... Amazing. With the Shorty, It was basically straight piped, Which Crushed MPG’s And All Power and Responses.
Totally with the silencer. I live in a subdivision too and I don't want them knowing my business......WOOT..
Man ive just found out about the new style rebel and man that is great looking bike now that its 1100 that is a bike on my want list
It so much nice sound with the silencer!
Glad you finally got the TBR. It's sounds great either way, but I kinda lean toward the DB killer in. I use earplugs all the time it helps with wind noise and I don't miss anything else I should be hearing. I'm sure my military training has an effect on how I feel about earplugs.
sounds awesome!
With the silencer is perfect!
straight up have not slept watching all your vids lol
Hahah hell yea! You’re the man!! 🙏🏻
I only see the GP Shorty Exhaust in the description? Also great vid, amazing sound
I have a TBR exhaust on my Rebel 500 and love it!
Great vids, loving them all the way from nz. The Rebel is not due to land here until July. I was tossing up between the CB1000R and the Rebel 1100. You have convinced me the Rebel is the way. Do they have heated grips factory?
Keep up the good work!
Sounds really good
i'm gettin to the party late and yakin' about something years old to boot...
i had a suzuki gsf1200s, fast bike but not crazy fast. anyway i bought a replacement muff same style as in this video but different manufacturer (i don't want to say who).
so i slip it on there and tighten things up. it had the "silencer" in it straight out of the box. rode it, loved it. then the next weekend i took the silencer out. wow what an amazing sound, and it seemed to have more power!
buddy has a MC shop and a dyno so i had to find out...
stock muff: 97-ish HP
aftermarket w/silencer: 102HP
aftermarket wo/silencer: 98HP
so... the sound without the silencer was amazing, but i actually had MoAR POwEr with it in! and i didn't upset anyone in my neighborhood daily riding to work and whatever.
I would go with the silencer in. Both sound great
I'm a little late to this party, but I'm just now considering the 1100. Great video. You answer all the questions I would have. The exhaust sounds great with or without the silencer. Without it you have a hot rod sound and with it it's more of a big V-twin sound. I think the sound profile does change a bit with the silencer: it's a little richer. I'd probably pack fiberglass on mine. Loud exhausts sound great and the police love them too. I'd rather be a little lower profile with the way I ride.
Oh man. Finally got this exhaust installed with baffle last week. Was still too loud for my sensitive ears but after wrapping the silencer with one layer of fiberglass exhaust pack, the sound level is perfect while maintaining the Two Brothers grumble and pops! If anyone finds this exhaust too loud even with baffle, just spend the $15 and wrap the baffle. Super easy to do!
How did you do the fiber glass wrap thing?
@@mrpablomx literally just wrap the baffle tightly, secure with clear packaging tape, put back in exhaust.
I ended up putting a glass packing kit around the DB killer made it very nice to ride without having the Hollow tube sound you get from running Two Brothers Exhaust.
Glass packing kit?
Added to my wishlist
Solid choice my guy!
It’s sounds incredible with the silencer
I love how it sounds... but I need to wait for something like that which is down and doesn't block me adding some nice hard lockable saddle bags, which I plan on doing asap. If they didn't have the upswept design, I would have thrown cash at them already.
Sounds great.. also I thought I wasn't a fan of the upswept look.. but that looks so cool.. I was wrong I was horribly wrong
Glad I could make you a believer! Haha
sounds good!
Hi LifeofBurch , nice review on the TBR exhaust great sound! You covered a lot of the questions I had going. I was considering going for the Low mounted Tbr do you think or know if it would have enough clearance with Shad 23 side cases? Thanks
It sounds great, even though i cant get the full effect through video. The silencer is a good idea, as 85 decibels will damage your hearing after about eight hours, and the higher the decibel the faster it happens. I put the quiet baffles in my vance and hines to take it from a fluctuating 86-90 decibels at idle, down to a steady 80 decibels for this reason.
Very Happy Making the TBR Choice for my Honda Rebel
That sounds awesome
Agreed! I’m so impressed!
Great review! When you must make due with the tools you have in a parking lot things happen. Black is not too hard to touch up.
True that, and honestly nobody would even see the little mark unless I pointed it out anyway. I buy my bikes to ride them, not to make them show bikes, so it’s not a big deal...at least that’s what I convince myself of 😂
Would love to know how decibels compare to stocker and V&H.
Really liking the sound of this exhaust! Now I have a tough decision to either buy this one or the Vance & Hines exhaust
Jay_M what did you end up getting? I’m still undecided. I love the look of the TBR but from videos I like how the vance sounds. Vance also looks kinda weird, looks like a cone.
@@Dave-ru5nw I ended up going with the Vance and Hines. I got it at a discount so it was a easy decision.
excellent, and have to go with the silencer/suppressor since currently in an apartment, when i move out on the property... probably a different story
True that! Gotta keep the neighbors happy! It honestly still sounds sooo good with the silencer too!
Love your Bike!
A 4 decibel difference is actually a lot more than you'd think. It's something like for every decibel lowered, the perceived sound drops by half or something like that. great video!
Oh wow! That makes a lot of sense then! Thanks for the info brotha! 🙏🏻
Each 3 decibel rise represents a doubling of sound output.
@@tonycooper4141 thanks for the correction, you are right! -3dB is the half power point since decibels are on a logarithmic scale. So -9dB at idle is a huge difference
@@tonycooper4141 thanks for the correction, it's been a minute since I've brushed up my sound stuff!
Nice vid. By chance did you note the weight difference between the OEM exhaust and the TBR exhaust?
Finally!!! Haha sounds great
Finally is right! Hahah I’ve been so anxious to finally get this!
Definitely with the silencer.👍
I was so surprised at how good it sounds with the silencer!
Secure muffler mounting before tightening muffler. This insures you aren’t inducing unnecessary stresses in the pipe mount to the engine.
New pipes can definitely change the throttle response by alot. I noticed that as well on my triumph.
I have the two brothers on my ‘12 DL1000 and lord have mercy they are beast… …kinda want to try out silencers in it now so my ears stop bleeding lol
Sounds bad ass!
It's funny because while i was asking myself the question, you mentionned the passenger and the exhaust direction. Im glad that they also considered this ! It would be sad to have to chose. Have you planned to put the passenger seat ? I don't remember. Cheers ! ✌️💯
Thanks!
Hey man, did you get the bike tuned for the exhaust? And of not, do you feel like it could benefit from a tune?
I was about to ask if it gave a bit more power...sounds great
Sound awesome.
I’m so stoked on the sound! 🙌🏻
Could you do a video on how to clean the chain and what products you use
Another A+ level review from Mr. Burch himself! But my only dilemma is: do I get one for my Sportster now and Rebel when I get one, or do I stay stock on the Sporty so I can get a Rebel sooner? 🤔
Ooo that is quite the dilemma...I say always keep the end goal in mind! If not getting it for your Sportster will help you get the Rebel sooner, then hold off and you’ll be cruising on your Rebel before you know it!
sounds great with the silencer imo
Hello. Questions. Does the exhaust interferes with the rear panniers/sattle bags?
Hey @Burch, since you’re coming from all previous Rebel’d would this exhaust work with the 500 too? Do they have the bracket in the same position ? Cheers.
Let me know about fuel consumption. I noticed a diference when i putted TBR on my 500.
Decibels (dB) are logarithmic usually on a scale of "tens". No silencer = with throttle at 112dB versus an idle of around 90dB, throttle-no-load volume is approximately 120x time louder than idle (every 10dB is 10x louder than the previous 10 marker; i.e. 20dB is 10x louder than 10dB, and 30dB is 100x (10x10) louder than 10dB, 40dB is 1000x (10x10x10) louder than 10dB, so on, so forth)..
Perfect sound for me.
Hey chief! I love your Chanel. Would it be possible to do a decibel read at 50cm away from the exhaust at idle? These towns are cracking down on "noise pollution" and especially the harley guys are getting smashed with fines. Maybe town bylaws limit it at 92db at 50cm from the exhaust.
Hi, your face when you started switched the ignition on and revved it! Said more than a thousand words😂 You really convinced me in that video, absolutely love the sound. and wanted to order. However, I just read on the Two Brothers own page, that their exhaust systems are not approved, only for racing purposes and therefore not legal on public roads. Do you have other information?
Silencer sounds better, yes a little more quiet but that's a good thing I think. I have the same bike, I may get that exhaust. Great video. I just received my rear stand from Pit Bull, perfect fit and it's soooo well made.
I’d definitely recommend getting this exhaust! It sounds even better in person! I’ll have to check out the Pit Bull stand. I still don’t have one.
I'd go w/o the silencer. Good vid.
