Tuned and Synch'ed
The V9 roamer I bought came with Mistral long mufflers. After reading about how some have db killers installed I looked at mine and there they were. I removed them to look at them and I bet they have been cut. I will post a couple of pics and maybe someone else that has them can say.
I actually have a decibel meter (not a app on my phone) and I have checked all my bikes especially before changing exhausts to see the difference between stock and whatever I bought. Since I don't have stock V9 exhaust I checked the Mistrals with and without the db killers.
With the db killers
idle 81db
cruise rpm 94db
revved 108 db
Without the db killers
idle 83 db
cruise rpm 94db
revved 108 db
I always set the meter 8ft away and directly behind to be consistent. Not much difference is why I think the previous owner modified the db killers.
