Has anyone worked on making their RTV quieter by altering the muffler or using one of the add ons???
We don't hear our muffler at all. The only noise we ( I ) hear is the diesel engine on the 900.....
Now, I will tell you something that really surprised me last year. And still stunned about it.
Went out of town to pick up a piece of equipment. While me and the man who we were getting it from was talking right inside his shop was discussing more equipment, I turned around and a man on a newer Honda four wheeler done slipped up behind me about five foot. ENGINE RUNNING. NEVER HEARD A THING. He rolled up inside the enclosed shop, which should of amplified any sound.
The shop owner introduced me to the man. I ask him, how in the name of God, did you slip in on me that close. I DID NOT HEAR NOTHING. He laughed and then showed me. This was his hunting machine.
Funny ..... the only thing he did, was he took a piece of hose the same size of the end of the muffer, push it up into it. THAT IS IT !!!! He unplugged the hose and showed me the difference of the two. Rived up his engine without the hose and it was really noisey. Put the hose on.
Amazing it was.
This made this machine run total silence. Believe it or not. Shocking but true. The hose run out of the muffler and turned 90 degrees run under his back rack. Had a couple of zip ties holding the hose onto the rack.
No need to go purchase one of them fancy " quiet muffler contraptions " that might not work. For I know for a fact, this "hose thingy" worked 110% !!!
Great for a gas burner.
