Abraxix92 Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 Seen around facebook, and on the forums about setting off to work early/very late.Guess it all comes down to neighours i guess though!I've had no complaints with this exhaust or bike, showed max of 5k revs as i don't ass it down the street in the morning when it's wet.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWII33R ... e=youtu.be Quote
BikerMooFromMars Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 Sounds meaty - I likey! Bet you had stinky fingers after that *fnar fnar* I like how it purrs towards the end when you keep the revs low Quote
Dav3y Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 I used to like the odd late night ride to Costa for a late night coffee and bakewell tart when I had my XJ6 as you could barely hear it running but alas no more with the Z1000SX. I guess I could be more inconsiderate but you have to live next door to these people and anything not to give a bad impression of bikes has got to be good.Did try the push it up the end of the garden but it's nigh on impossible to get the bike up the slope and through a barely wider than the bike gap without it being under its own power, besides I'd probably drop it or scratch it.

Who else but Quagmire Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 I like how you have it under the category of "Pets and Animals".... You should start the "YouTube your bike" Thread and see who has the meatiest exhaust. A mate of mine has a Honda Fury with short open pipes that makes your ears bleed. Quote
Abraxix92 Posted October 12, 2014 Author Posted October 12, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARmwjPmKBZY, slightly better, decided to take my 2inch phone case off! Did not realize it was under pets and animals oops Quote
Stu Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 what pisses off neighbours off more is sat in the street revving the nuts off it for no reason and shit like that start and ride away steadily with low revs and crawl in on low revs and turn straight off and you will probably find most wont even wake up Quote
Abraxix92 Posted October 12, 2014 Author Posted October 12, 2014 i slip it into 3rd when i set of with clutch barely out just showing you can sneak away!Edit: what exactly is the hissing on the second video? Quote
Stu Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 Edit: what exactly is the hissing on the second video? have you got a hole for a bolt to hold a baffle in? it will be on the underside of the outlet if so cover it with your finger it could be that I had one that whistled Quote

Pete Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Very nice note that pipe's making mate.The BMW GS has a bit of a burble/whistle when the baffle is removed as well. Putting a button headed allen bolt in the hole that holds the baffle in cures it (like Stu said with your finger, only more permanent ) Quote
BikerMooFromMars Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARmwjPmKBZY, slightly better, decided to take my 2inch phone case off! They sound awesome...Chris had a Beowolf exhaust on the CBF (still does - a bit bent now tho!). Have you taken a pillion yet? - dear GOD does it stink if you're stuck as a passenger!! Quote
Abraxix92 Posted October 15, 2014 Author Posted October 15, 2014 not yet no, i love the smell though Quote
JamBerryKing Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 when i was riding being abraxis at the rally, his exhaust backfired and i felt the force on my chest.it was bloody loud, and awesome we will have to meet up soon buddy! Quote
