So I saw this on Google video, anyone seen this before? The sound was quite annoying.

OUCH!!! I had my headphones on for that one! I wonder how he gets his tailpiece and seat back on with that level in the way?

Ozfazer6 · 08-26-2008, 07:56 PM

Clever idea though.

Jesus, was that thing measuring the noise, the pollution, or the annoying factor?

I think it was an annoy-o-meter, and he damn near pegged it.

PS - I know it was measuring the noise, but still - wtf?

Wow! that sounds awful, like an electric Chainsaw! Clever in principal though. Definitely original.

Thanks again Dennis for the on-going group buy on the Two Brothers.

looks like an exhuast cut out.

**Sawblade** · 08-26-2008, 09:26 PM

The idea is awesome, but the execution needs work. When tooling around neighborhoods and on long trips, I'd love to keep the stock sound, but I'd really like some more volume when in tight traffic and when I'm "sport riding".

this looks like a race concept on a street car where with the push of a button you bypass the muffler, for unrestricted flow. Dont our bikes run 96db standard, which means every one who has done one mode or another to the exhaust, is probably getting close to that annoying to other people, especially those of us that have increased noise without a lot of throat by drilling cans.

WOW! I don't think I ever saw a FZ6 burn oil that bad!
