I picked up a black 1290 with 1000miles and have been smiling ever since. It has a gorgeous Carbon full Racefit exhaust that has a fantastic low moan while riding with earplugs, but I think it may be a bit obnoxious riding around the city. I am looking to get something quieter, maybe an Akra or Wings???
I look forward to reading about all the stuff and tricks available for the bike.....

Welcome!

The end can doesn't do much, especially the racefit one.
The noise comes from removing the cat, If it is in place you can take the end can off and it hardly makes a difference.
I take the cat is been removed and replaced with a link pipe!?

I like a bit of noise too but too much and it draws unwanted attention....
