Thanks Eddieb ....have emailed my inside men at KTM...the down side will be if it comes through KTM it will be cheaper to buy a new tank!
Thanks for that have just sent of an email!
250psi...that seems a bit explosive??

on another note...can ayone shed any light on how to install a quiet insert into an FMF powercore 4 muffler??? unless there is some surgery required...which I'm reluctant to do until I'm sure thats whats required.....I'm thinking they sent the wrong insert??

the fmf exhaust is noisy isnt it!,would be very interested in possible silencing options too.what options have you come up with so far?
dont waste your time or time will waste you
bardcore hiker
has been crash tested too

Once it's emulsified it's only about 180psi.
Mono rear shocks get about 150psi of nitrogen.

the FMF silencer is supposed to drop the noise to 94db....if youve got the right one of course??

cut a section of ally tube ,put a gradual bend in it left it about 300 mm long and incorporated it into the spark arrestor end of the fmf and gave a huge difference to the sound ,still nice but has taken away the scary noise sound that makes cows roll off down hillstook about 20 minutes
dont need ear plugs anymore.............well as much

Thats a mighty fine rack you've got yourself there.made some pannier racks out of stainless,makes carrying gear so much easierAttachment 219528Attachment 219529Attachment 219530
Very nice work on the fabrication. I've bodged up a couple of racks in my time but nothing as pretty as that. You should spin out a few more and sell them.

cycle treads who i ordered the part through have gone strangely silent over the last week...sent them 2 emails with no reply...funny that! I did try making one, wasn't that impressed but looks like I might have to have another go.cut a section of ally tube ,put a gradual bend in it left it about 300 mm long and incorporated it into the spark arrestor end of the fmf and gave a huge difference to the sound ,still nice but has taken away the scary noise sound that makes cows roll off down hills
Heading down to Junkmajoe's turf over the weekend and didn't want the locals think Thor the god of thunder had arrived to smite them...oh well i did try

Thats the sole reason I took my FMF's off the 950, the volume was ridiculous. I felt embaressed riding throught town and I couldn't even pop down to the local shops without earplugs.....but has taken away the scary noise sound that makes cows roll off down hills

dunno to be honest...gut feeling is idle? at present its not to bad at idle but once you give her the berries she starts to crack a bit of a noteI know cows and sheep think its a bit loud as well.
Armature speller
My little SuperTrapp is loud but only measures 92dB at 1500rpm.
The GSXR600 pipe is 85dB at 1500rpm.
