Has anyone found a good stock style replacement muffler for a MAX IV with a 20hp Kohler command?  Thanks Jeff Bar

FYI, I went with an Emgo shorty muffler. Not the shortest they make though. It’s 15” and weighs 2.4lbs, far less than the sportster muffler. A little louder, not sure if it’s because it’s just not so far behind me or not. Headers are 1” into 1.5”. They look so cute compared to what I’m used to seeing.

The Emgo muffler is cheap $26, was here on the same day I ordered, and had a removable baffle so I can play with the noise a bit.

Machine is still getting worked on (meth+back injury equals slooooow progress from my mechanic), but I’ll try and gets some pics of it in soon. Here’s a shot next to another sportster muffler I already had.

Well, the sportster muffler is too long with the headers, so I need something shorter. I’m running 1” tinto 1.5” on the headers.
Any thoughts on running a stock small car muffler?  Was even thinking a rice rocket short muffler might actually run quiet on the Vanguard. Have wanted an OEM takeoff sport bike muffler, but they’re just too expensive for right now.

Well that is one way to use a Sportster muffler  popcorn

I have the other as well. The original plan was to use both, but using one allows access to the clutches and belt easier. We’ll see once I get the time to build headers. I’m cutting the rear tub at the top seam and moving my fuel tank on top of the wheel well to give a little more room and putting a flat bed on top that will hunt forward for access, why I was ok with putting it out the back for now.

Haha I’m all about being quiet and hidden considering it’s a hunting machine for me. But I’d love to have it hot rodded out like y’all! Jealous lol  banana

The Harley exhaust is actually more quiet than the stock was on mine. One the headers are on, who knows. Having it so far out the back definitely helps, though my fingers are attracted to the shiny chrome and I’ve touched the hot muffler on more than one occasion.
