POWERBOX Silencer

Fits: YAMAHA SR400

Japanese Webike user

5/5

I don't feel like flying SP Tadao Magic

Since it was installed at the same time as the Inner Box of the POWER BOX, it may not be able to give you the same impression as the SilencerSingle Body, but I hope it will be of some help to you.
First of all, everyone may be concerned about the large sound, but to sum it up, the sound is not so large compared to other shops' exhaust systems.
Of course, compared to the Normal muffler, the sound is a bit louder or fatter in Idling rotation.
If I were to use a music band performance analogy, if the OEMExhaust System is played only with a guitar, the Silencer of the POWER BOX is like a Base sound added to it.
As for my impression after driving, I felt that this Exhaust System is most enjoyable when running at a leisurely 3,000 rpm, as I can feel the throbbing of the engine.
Even when climbing a mountain, I felt that the Torque was properly increased as it climbed without opening the Axel compared to when I was running with the Normal muffler. (Perhaps the effect of the Inner Box installed at the same time may have contributed to this.)
When cruising at about 80km/h, it is almost impossible to hear the exhaust sound due to the wind cutting sound as well as the normal muffler, but the true essence of this exhaust system is to run at a leisurely speed of about 3000rpm. As a result, I don't feel like speeding up.
So, if I say that it would be boring if I took out Speed, that's not true!
Speed.
When increasing the speed, I felt the Mechanical Noise of the Engine become larger and larger in the Normal muffler, but after installing the Power Box Silencer, I did not feel it so much.
Probably because of the thicker sound quality due to the POWER BOXSilencer
If this was the intention, SP Tadao has got us all by the balls.
The more it runs, the more it roars. w
On the other hand, if you buy it expecting the sound, you may regret it a lot!
It is not an exhaust system that makes a loud noise like a Helicopter like other Shop's exhaust systems.
The price is also very high for a SilencerSingle Body, and to be honest, I wish the price was a little lower.
In terms of design, the design is similar to the OEM Exhaust System, so it is an excellent choice for customizers who do not want to change the OEM design.
The weight is not so light compared to the OEM Exhaust System.
It's just a little bit lighter because it doesn't have the lunch box that comes with the OEM Exhaust System.
The Exhaust Guard sticks out a little bit, so I hit the heel of my foot once during Kick start, so perhaps you should be a little careful.
To be honest, SP Tadao's Emblem could have been a little smaller in size.
In general, I thought that this Exhaust System strengthened the fee ring of SR400's single cylinder engine.
It's fun to drive leisurely and smoothly, and when the Axel is opened, it accelerates powerfully.
Personally, I am satisfied with Large. View detail

POWERBOX Megaphone

Fits: SUZUKI SV650ABS

Japanese Webike user

5/5

Megaphone Exhaust looks great on the Neo-Classic body.

[How is it used?
The SV650 was purchased because of its simple and nostalgic design.
I was feeling that the exhaust system was not good enough for the CLASSIC design of the body, when I found that SP Tadao was selling it as POWERBOXSeries, so I saved up Webike's points and small money with hanghang and bought it, I use SV650 for city riding, short touring and walking in the mountains.
Was the one you received as per Image?
Just like the name of the product. "Megaphone" The design of the Type is my personal favorite, which can be seen as either CLASSIC or Sporty.
SP Tadao's POWERBOXSeries has been used in WR250R and SEROW250, so it is not so common in the old Exhaust System. "Just Design and Sound." I had no hesitation because I knew that the product was not a low-speed exhaust system of the "Image", and it was just like the "Image" including the characteristics.
Exhaust systems for the SV650 have been sold by various manufacturers, but many of them are similar in design to the STD Shape, Since we are going to replace the exhaust system, we want to change the design and enjoy the appearance as well. I was looking for a good system, and as a result, I came across this Exhaust System.
Was the installation difficult?
Since it is Slip-on Silencer Type, it is less difficult than Full Exhaust System Type, and even beginners can easily replace it by watching Instruction Manual for installation and SP Tadao's official video (YouTube). (If you don't understand even after watching the instruction manual and SP Tadao's official video (YouTube), please ask a PRO or a dexterous friend to help you).
How was your experience with it?
Today, the exhaust Gas regulation is getting stricter year by year, Japanese Vehicle Inspection Correspondence Type and yet "Slip-on Silencer. It is unlikely that the performance will change drastically with Type's Exhaust System, but I think they are doing their best to make changes in the Torque output characteristics.
The low speed range has the same Torque characteristic as NORMAL.
At mid-speed range, Torque increases a little bit compared to Normal, which seems to be TWIN. "Thud thud thud. The bike pushes the body forward with a rumbling sound (I mean in a 650cc way, not like a Big Twin with over 1000cc).
At high speeds, Torque is increased in the engine, which originally spins nimbly, and the torque is increased in the middle. Dood-doo." A sound like Dooooooooooo!!!!" The convergence comes to feel like a convergence and extends pleasantly to the top.
(Can you understand that?????). (Can you understand that??).
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
Personally, I like the design, it is lightweight, there is no loss of Torque, and it does not disappoint.

Point and hang of installation
As mentioned above, an Instruction Manual is included, and if you watch the official SP Tadao video on YouTube, you can easily understand the introduction.
[Availability and clarity of the Instruction Manual
Instruction Manual is available, with easy-to-understand text and pictures.
[Notes]
If you work with your bare hands, sebum will stick to the exhaust system, and when the exhaust system is heated after the engine is started, the touched marks will burn black and become stains.
It is less labor intensive to install using disposable Rubber gloves or work gloves.
[ITEMS TO BUY TOGETHER
If liquid Gasket is applied to the inlet port, exhaust leakage can be prevented. KITACOConvenienceParts It may be a good idea to buy a small amount of TYPE of ETC. to keep the price down.
[Opinions and requests to Manufacturer
I think it would be even cooler if there is a VERSION such as matte black. View detail

POWER BOX SUS Slip-on Silencer

Fits: YAMAHA SEROW250, YAMAHA SEROW250, YAMAHA XT250X, YAMAHA XG250 TRICKER

Japanese Webike user

4/5

High-speed cruising becomes easier.

operability
The dimensions are perfect. However, it would be easier to install the exhaust pipe after loosening it, and there would be no strain after installation.

appearance
The short is also my favorite, and the clean weld marks are intriguing.

exhaust note
Idling feels larger than OEM, but does not make a popping sound, so it is not bothersome. Tut-tut." Or Dood-doo-doo."
When accelerating, the sound of the engine sound reflecting off the Gold Under Cover is much louder than the engine sound.

roadability
The low and mid RPM range felt the same as the OEM. Not a bad thing at all, and the SEROW's ease of handling is well retained.
In the high rpm range, it is as if the speed range that each GEAR is in charge of is added +10 to 15 km/h. In other words, the speed range that each GEAR is in charge of is added +10 to 15 km/h. In other words "Elongation" became Motorcycle with
I used to feel that cruising at 100 km/h was tough, but after the replacement, I can cruise with ease.

General review
As another person wrote, if you are just driving along forest roads, I think you don't need to change the exhaust system. For those who take the expressway for long trips, it is a good idea because they will be able to cruise at high speeds without difficulty, which they have been forced to endure up to now.
I am inspired to do a long touring in SEROW with a positive attitude. View detail

POWER BOX SUS Slip-On Exhaust

Fits: YAMAHA XT250X, YAMAHA SEROW250, YAMAHA SEROW250, YAMAHA XG250 TRICKER

5/5

It's a staple in SEROW.

[How is it used?
I bought this to change the silencer on my serow 250.
I had already replaced the exhaust pipe with SP Tadao's one, and the exhaust pipe alone was effective.
I also decided to change the Silencer because I felt it was clogged in the high RPM range.
I thought about other Manufacturer, but I decided to use the same Tadao.
Was the one you received as per Image?
This time I chose Stainless and it was beautifully made and well packaged.
The shape of the silencer is also different from other manufacturers.
Once installed, you will not feel any discomfort.
Was the installation difficult?
The instructions included with the product are very detailed and easy to replace. The installation screw holes are perfect.
You can see that it's properly made.
How was your experience with it?
The engine has no stress from bottom to top.
It was a fun Engine.
I feel that the accelerator operation at low speed has become severe because the response has become better.
