If the pipe has "Not for road use" stamped into it, it's not quiet loud enough..

I mention how much of a can of worms that will be - he agrees

Have you seen the S.B.D Adjustable sound muffler systems ?

"Cable-operated 'sound valve' adjusts the volume even while riding".

I went to an official LTSA WOF place a couple of years ago and had a good laf - nobody there knew how to check bikes so I showed 'em how to check headset bearnings, wheels etc - and they gave me a WOF! After I proclaimed my bike to be ok! hahahha.

In hindsight I should've explained how all bikes must be wheelied at least 50 metres to ensure the rear wheel is strong enough......and that LoudPipesSaveLives®. Something like that anyway.

The regs specifically state that mufflers aren't allowed to be adjustable. Which would rule out the cans that Motorcycle Exhaust Specialists in Hanmer made/make that have an allen-key adjustable baffle thingo (technical term) which adjusts from 'sport' to 'touring' or vice-versa.

So how do trucks get away with jake brakes? Technically that would rate as an "adjustable exhaust". Or for that matter how do Wgtn city diesel buses get away with the noisemakers they have? Not too many bikes would be as loud as a stagecoach accelerating.
