How to choose the tailpipe of your bike?

For this reason, it is very important to know the advantages and disadvantages of different tailpipes that exist in the market. An internal combustion engine is unable to burn the fuel in its entirety. The more unburned fuel increased the generation of harmful substances expelled in the exhaust gases into the atmosphere. The carbon dioxide is, despite not be a toxic gas, the major cause of the greenhouse and is one of the gases which eliminates the bike when in operation.

Types of exhaust pipe for the bike

Referring to the material from which they are made are four types of exhaust in the market:

• Stainless: The pipe stainless steel exhaust is the cheapest in Fast Bikes; we have great deals to offer. Price and high resistance to shocks are its advantages. Among the negative points are that they are heavy, and they are not very efficient at dissipating heat.
• Aluminum: The exhaust pipes aluminum are much lighter than steel and also dissipate heat more effectively. They are highly resistant to corrosion, and they have a shiny appearance that will look new for a long time. The big disadvantage is that they are fragile, easily marked.
• Carbon: The exhaust of carbon fibers are lightweight and have good heat dissipation. Its weaknesses are the price and have low impact resistance.
• Titanium: The only disadvantage of exhaust titanium is the price. If we ignore economic issues, they are all pluses: lightness, strength, and efficiency in terms of heat dissipation.

Installation and operation of the exhaust pipe

The operation of the exhaust pipe is simple: the collector collects the gases in the outlet valves of the engine cylinders and leading to the catalyst, which is responsible for reducing pollutants. From there, the exhaust gases are directed to the silencer, which reduces the intensity and frequency of the sound passing through a labyrinthine, before being released into the atmosphere.

Depending on the connection type, exhaust pipes can be BOLT-ON or SLIP-ON. The first are those that bind directly to the collector, by nuts and bolts but do without any part that mediates between the manifold and the exhaust pipe. The SLIP-ON is using a small elbow to connect. However, beyond the material or type of connection, it is very important that the exhaust meets the regulations. You must be sure it is approved. It is the first aspect that you should check.
