[QUOTE="firecracker22, post: 113276, member: 20316"] I've ridden a couple BBR 150s--with cam, porting, big bore, and pipe. They are loud--but not as loud as the 426s are! Someone mentioned that how the test is conducted has a huge impact on results--this is true. How far away and from what angle, the RPMs, and airbox will greatly affect db readings. I read a manual "How to ride the ISDE" and there was a whole section offering tricks to get a quasi-legal bike through sound checks! There a a few guys with XR400s who have removed the baffle from their mufflers and that sound is far, far more annoying than a piped TTR. You want horsepower? You're gonna get some noise. Rich mentioned half-baked theories. I know the boys at BBR used to post here quite a bit. But there was so much incorrect information being tossed around, and when they tried to offer a solution or idea they were argued with and contradicted. Now this happens everywhere especially on the internet but they got sick of arguing with clueless people. Some of the information was not only false but dangerous--Pete said something about heating their swingarms. [/QUOTE]
