Excellent, looks like there's going to be quite a few of us.

Just went to book this but it says its 102dB? It was 105dB last year, has it changed, or just an error on the website?

Don't think my Triumph will pass at 102 frown

It's 102, although the email confirmation I had quotes both. You aren't going to be doing too many TDs this year as Oulton is always 102 now and Donny will only be Ok on noisy days which are quite limited this year. You're going to struggle to practice for a y upcoming races apart from Anglesey.

Also , a bike which will make 105 db can be made to make 102db without any great engineering skills or lengthy deliberations. To reach that lower limit it wouldn't be strangled to death - I'm sure plenty on here could help with the direction for that if you can't do it yourself George ...

He's an engineer of some sort, I reckon even he can do the mashed up Coke can.

I can put a baffle in it and get it through noise testing, but the bike really, really doesn't like the baffle. It struggles to even reach the red line.

I might have to get 2 baffles, one that passes the noise test, one that is cut down and full of holes.

I repacked the exhaust the other week with the hope it would make it better, but when I ran it up to temperature, it didn't seem to make any difference frown Will get it checked when I go to Cartagena in a couple of weeks.

Dunno what your normal baffle is but pipewerx make perforated ones that should be much less restrictive

I'll give them a ring tomorrow and confirm which it is.

I'll mostly be practicing at Cadwell. Can pass there (just).

Will be doing a few Anglesey days too though.

The baffle was made by the same people who did the exhaust (Scorpion). It only just gets it down to 102dB too.

Same bike? Atmospherics the same throughout all those tests?
