STUDMEYER Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Hi ThaiVisa, I want to make a custom muffler from scratch or from an empty pre made can. I have visited multiple muffler/bike/automotive shops and several machine shops looking for someone who can build this, and its been a frustrating unsuccessful slog. If you know of a shop that can build a muffler from scratch and isn't going to quote 9500 baht, and 5 days to complete it, please share. Likewise, if you have a grinder, vice, work bench, welder/torch, drill press and rivet gun, I'd be willing to buy you beer to use the facilities. Thanks, SM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puwa Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Not sure if he's your man, but maybe worth a visit. He's done custom exhaust work for me on 2 cars, and the welds have held for many years, but I never asked him to build a box from scratch.

CMKiwi Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 There is a guy out Mae Rim way (Not too far from my house actually) and he makes mufflers and header pipes from scratch. I think his brand name is Home or something like that. All stainless steel stuff and reasonably priced. I have used him a bit when I want aluminium welded. He does a good job and very inexpensive. The only thing Id be worried about is the noise output with some after market mufflers. When the BiB were having the random checkpoints, I was stopped and told that my FMF Q4 muffler was not allowed as it was too noisy. To prove his point he wound open the throttle on my bike.....what a richard cranium! I agreed with the police officer but suggested that very few people ride around with the throttle wide open... that would be plain crazy when in 1st gear crawling around the CBD. I replaced the FMF with the stock muffler for the CRF 250 but now the random checkpoints have ceased/died down may revert. The FMF certainly allowed for a better acceleration albeit a tad noisier. But anyhow, let me know if you need more directions as this is a bit out of town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STUDMEYER Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 Dang at Dang Kroong Pratu makes them It was Dangs that quoted me 9500 baht at 3-5 days to build a muffler. I went to the shop near chang klan rd. Maybe its a different story at airport plaza? Home Muffler shop is good but was hoping for something closer (im in hang dong area) SM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMKiwi Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I understand what you're saying. Hope you find something closer home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
