I just purchased a 2007 Viva Phantom r4i 150cc- The bike has 271 miles on it

My bike has this muffler you are talking about on it.

What is this new muffler all about?

Is it better than the ones that don't wrap around?

I was considering getting one of the normal ones just because I think they look better than the wrap around like I have.

I believe from reading on the scootdawg forum that the wrap around type are very restrictive and hurt performance. The standard pipe is probably better.

thanks for the info, i could not see any advantage to the wrap around exhaust and was curious as to is purpose. i was considering a vento when i visit the philippines in dec. i hope to retire there and there is a vento dealer in the small city where the house is located.

I think that the chinese scooters are big sellers in the phillipines.

yes they are big sellers but japan inc. machines are the most favored for all the usual reasons.
