I have just purchased an exhaust from ebay 2nd hand fitted it and it is quite loud said on page it was road legal but i have my doubts. I was just wondering how much if any people have had from the plod!

I've not had a problem with the police over here ... only trouble I've had is car alarms :oops:

Guess CBR Sam is the one to ask ... with his quiet little pipe :?

What make ?
If it's loud and you see old bill stick it top gear and throttle off 8)
If you get pulled say sorry officer I did not know it wasn't legal :!: :!:


Or say it's loud for saftey reasons 8) :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:



Mines got termis on it nice and loud. My 916 had termis they were loud too 8)
All of my other jap bikes had race cans as well never got pulled. 8)

I've been pulled before, but I got the stamp kit out and put the BS mark on mine so they can't do jack, they went round the whole bike then tyres tax bla bla bla couldn't find s.hit, they then even followed me for a mile till I left em at some lights :D

Nothing wrong with loud cans, on the TL though, which is mega loud, I just stick it in a higher gear when rozzers are about lol :)

I agree inline-4's sound like hairdryiers compaired to Vee-Twins :D

Can't beat the sound of a duke though, might not be as loud as some other V-Twin's but the desmo's going clicky clicky woot woot ya know it's a real bike :D (But I still ain't gonna buy one, £850 6000 mile service costs, fook that LOL :P)
