    A study in Kawasaki aural tones

    The things you see on quiet country roads!
    The 1st one looks to be a late model ZX10R with a akrapovic exhaust system.
    The 2nd one appears to be a red and black H1 ZXR750.
    What are the chances of these two bikes being captured on video within minutes of each other!
    I don't know how they got those exhausts past WOF with the racket they make at 100 kph

    The Test pilot looks familiar though

    Sorry, I have to say the 10 sounds better... Nothing like a wailing engine revving well into the teens to get the attention...

    Agreed, kinda sucks to be him - to prove that sound changes as it goes past you......imagine how the crowd reacted - "Well DUH!"
