The design of the exhaust system affects many parameters such as reducing the noise level, control velocity, temperature, back-pressure of exhaust gas and reduce pollution production. The exhaust system has many parts which consist of an exhaust manifold, resonator, catalytic converter, muffler, and connecting pipes. Muffler has the main function as a noise absorber. Furthermore, the temperature distribution on mufflers is also affected by fuel consumption by reducing back-pressure effect. This study has conducted an experiment to determine the effect of modified muffler shape in a motorcycle which consists of standard, scorpion, and 3v3 type. The effects of mufflers’ performance on the motorcycle are described on torque and power graphics. Furthermore, this study explains the muffler geometry effect on noise reduction from the combustion process. The installation of 3v3 muffler decreases torque and power in a motorcycle. Moreover, the installation of 3v3 muffler type raises noise pollution level which generates by the engine combustion process.
