What To Know When Shopping For Kawasaki Ridge Exhaust

Revving up your Kawasaki Ridge with a new exhaust system offers exciting possibilities, but navigating the options can feel overwhelming. Here are critical factors to consider

Performance Goals

Consider the performance goals you want to achieve from upgrading your exhaust system. If you're craving more muscle for tackling rugged terrain, it's best to prioritize exhaust systems designed for increased horsepower and torque. Explore complete systems for maximum gains, or opt for slip-on mufflers to balance performance and budget. However, if fuel efficiency is more important, you should consider exhaust systems that optimize airflow for better combustion and improved fuel economy.

Sound Preference & Construction Material

Decide your desired sound signature. Options range from subtle throatier notes to aggressive growls. Remember, louder isn't always better – respect noise regulations and fellow riders. Stainless steel exhausts offer a deep, resonating sound, while aluminum provides a sharper, sportier tone. Often, the construction materials can influence the sound of the exhaust.

Durability & Maintenance

Choose exhaust systems by reputable brands made from high-quality materials like heat-resistant stainless steel for longevity and resistance to corrosion and wear. You should also consider the effort involved in maintaining your chosen exhaust. Some materials require frequent cleaning or polishing, while others offer low-maintenance appeal.

Installation & Compatibility

How easy is the exhaust system you want to purchase? Assess your mechanical expertise and opt for exhaust parts and accessories designed for easy installation. Where you can't install it, you should find professional assistance. Ensure the exhaust system is compatible with your specific Kawasaki Ridge model and year. 

Legality

Stay informed about noise regulations in your region, and choose an exhaust system that complies. If you're participating in a race, ensure your preferred Kawasaki Ridge exhaust parts and accessories meet the specifications and don't exceed the limits.

Type Of Exhaust

You should also consider the type of exhaust parts and accessories for your Ridge.

Slip-On Mufflers: The slip-on mufflers are the entry point for exhaust upgrades as they easily replace the stock muffler and offer a balance of affordability and performance. Expect a moderate power boost, improved sound, and potentially better fuel economy. It's ideal for riders seeking a noticeable upgrade without breaking the bank.

Full Exhaust Systems: You can also opt for a complete exhaust system that replaces the entire exhaust pathway from the engine to the exhaust tip (this can also include performance headers). With this upgrade, you should expect significant horsepower and torque gains, a more aggressive sound, and optimized airflow for maximum fuel efficiency. 

Dual Exhaust Systems: These setups replace the stock exhaust with two separate pipes, offering an aggressive look, a throatier exhaust note, and potential performance gains. Check local regulations before choosing this option.
