If you are riding on public land, the answer is YES! Most forests now have a noise restriction of around 96 db. Without the muffler there is no way you will meet this noise requirement. Also, when removing the muffler, you will probably be removing the spark arrestor which is almost always required on public land - - without this simple screen in the tail pipe, the motor can shoot sparks out the pipe, igniting wildfires.
