but the tractor muffler doesnt have a spark arrestor so you cant ride in nat parks were a hmf or a fmf will

Yes, they check here in TX......I've decided to leave the stock muffler.

Yea, I like the quiet sound nowadays. Thats why I got rid of the bikes and the raptor and wanted a utility. To each his own.... I just like to cruise and hear people when I talk to them

i just installed a FO-4 tractor pipe on mine and i kinda like it but if you dont like really F***ing loud then dont get one it is almost to loud i may end up changing it out.
