Snowmobile Can MBRP vs GGB

GGB Trail can on my doo. Definitely would recommend it. Huge weight savings and the decibel rating is below the maximum allowed; think it actually was only 2db over stock. Do not get a mountain can. It's very loud.

I would support a law confiscating sleds with “cans” on them (and by “cans” i don’t mean women drivers..lol) if being used on trails.. The future of our sport depends on it..
Never will happen around Newberry as the local law does not enforce loud sleds if so too many sleds would be gone or not have cans.

In Minnesota anything but stock will get you a ticket.



If it's not stock, it's modified.
Then it's up to You to prove that the exhaust does not exceed OE.

WOT through every intersection and populated area.

I have a MBRP can on my 1200 4-stroke. Legal in decibels with a low growl. Only wanted to get lighter----saved 19#
BTW, I was told by the local sheriff that it is still illegal as in WI you cannot alter your sled in any way.
Guess I did it twice as I also have a wrap!

Your local sheriff is wrong. Aftermarket mufflers are legal in Wisconsin as long as they are under the decibel limit.

The saving weight augment always kills me. I could put #19 on your sled without you knowing it and you could never tell the difference.

For additional clarification, this is quoted from the WI DNR Snowmobile Laws:

"You cannot modify your snowmobile’s exhaust in any manner that will amplify or increase the total noise emission above that emitted by the snowmobile as originally manufactured, regardless of date of manufacture. Excessive or unusually loud snowmobiles are illegal and hurt Wisconsin’s trail system. Do not increase your exhaust noise or operate with your exhaust system in excess of the sound limits. Wisconsin vigorously enforces the sound limits and penalties can be severe, however the worst thing about a loud snowmobile is that it causes properties to be permanently closed to snowmobile riding."

Tack836 is correct in that in the state of WI, you can modify your snowmobile's exhaust system but you can't make it louder than the stock muffler.

If you're willing to deal with the consequences, put the can on the sled and run it. I wouldn't want it, but I say "SO WHAT"? When they start writing tickets for obnoxious Harley exhaust, I'll revise the opinion.:cool:

that means if its ORIGINALLY MANUFACTURED to produce 87dbs... your new lightweight super-dooper riot maker cant exceed 87dbs...

If it was that highly illegal then couldnt you just take your OEM suitcase muffler soak it in water for a good couple of months let all the packing vanish - it would be louder than before BUT "original"

See what i did there?:cocksure:

Perhaps, but sled makers would spend millions of dollars, or sell them with 7 gallon fuel tanks, to make a 500 pound sled 19 pounds lighter.
