Noise issues at Ken Fells

those guys are a bunch of tossers up north, would have luved to see a big bail by one of them, mind you they wouldnt ride fast enough to fall off!!

Northland riders are the best!!!! end quote.

My bikes all stock but its still rather loud when givening it the boggie.

the problem with the loud exhausts as i see it, on the start say, you cant hear your own fuckin bike over the shitty loud ones, which puts me off getting a quiet muffler (mine is stock).

Josh coppins bike tests at 94db, where NZ's guys are winging at having to get to 98db, and you think they can beat Josh on the loud bikes!!!

we tested bikes on the dyno, got the bike down to 94db and lost .75 of a horsepower, and we could not notice on the track,

Not when he was riding those old suzukis at the 96 supercross nats, he was what made us think loud is fast haha

Its good to see things are changing though cause it sucks runnin out of places to ride...

yeah, i can remember those loud rm's god knows ow Murray thorn actually make those bikes so loud, but man they were fast,
if the god dam enviromentally friendly fourstrokes had not got here it would not be a problem, dam them all

Its good to hear that noisey bikes are sounding out of flavour with everyone. OK i have a quiet as WR250 but if all bikes were that quiet we would definately not have noise issues.

Well I just fitted a FMF "shorty" on my cr125 the other day and it is quieter now and sounds a shit load better it barks now rather than whines

EVERYONE said it would make my bike louder and sound like shit ha

Nothing worse than trying to talk over a shitty loud slow bike pure lack of care for both bike and others around them leads to it

[scott411]

if your bike got queiter with a shorty muffler, i imagine the old muffler had not been repacked in a very long time,

[vr4king]

Agreed

God yes! Must've been loud stock mate! I've got a pro circuit shorty on my CR and it's too loud for my liking aye. Might have to go back to stock on that one.
