[QUOTE="nobby, post: 13532, member: 257"] [b]thundersound[/b] On my 600 I use a 2" pipe, also longer then a standard pipe and a stainless 2" Supertrapp silencer. It makes more noise (especially in low revs) then when it was a 500 and used for racing. The last time at the track that the 500 engine was not admitted it made 112 dB without pulling the throttle. These noise "challenges" are one of the reasons to quit racing for a lot of people. On the track (or on the road ofcourse) the 600 (and the 500) make less noise. But idling and so is terrible for [B]some [/B]bystanders... If anyone knows of a silencer a bit similar to a Vincent one, but 1 3/4" or even 2" then I would like to know. I also have a pipe with a measure between standard and 2" (must be 1 3/4"?). [/QUOTE]
