What does the baffle do in an exhaust?
Motorcycle baffles AKA exhaust baffles are specially designed tubes – inserted into a motorcycle’s exhaust to quiet down the engine sound. Engine sound (any sound really) travels in waves. The walls surrounding a baffle tube are made to bounce sound waves – causing them to reverse, crash into each other and cancel out.
