Performance:
The Kawasaki KLE 500 Adventure Tourer is one of the top selling bikes of this style in Australia. On the in-house dyno when fitted with the Staintune produced a gain of 2 Hp which is perfect for this neat parallel twin 500. On road test the KLE 500 was much more responsive, it showed better all over improvement from the bottom end through mid range.
What about the noise:
The Twin Single Round Muffler develop a nice crisp deeper note then standard, the muffler uses the Staintune removable restrictor system which provides for 2 separate levels of sound.
Restrictors in: 91 dba @ 4150 rpm
Restrictors out: 95 dba @ 4150 rpm
The Single Muffler when fitted with the Staintune removable restrictor system is ADR compliant ~ That means legal…………
Weight savings:
The standard system is cumbersome and heavy at 6.2 Kilo’s while the Staintune system comes in at a very skinny 2.1 Kilo’s a huge saving of 4.1 Kilo’s.
Finish:
The Staintune system is a single ROUND muffler which has a sisaled finish.
