Abstract
A muffler for an internal combustion engine utilized on a motorcycle or the like. The muffler provides the necessary silencing action while being defined to be light in weight, small and pleasing in appearance. The exhaust gases are subdivided into a plurality of streams and successively conveyed through three silencing chambers. The gases are caused to change in direction and are shredded in each chamber for dissipating energy to provide the desired silencing action.
