An Apology

[Muppet]

My deepest, humblest, most sincere apologies to the residents of Lyndhurst, most of Hampshire, parts of Wiltshire Sussex Surrey and on the odd occasion, Kent.


I've just fitted these::grndevil :grndevil

 

[AndyT]

Very nice - what are they..

[CoolCarbon]

[Muppet]

Now, before you all go off on one saying how crap they look...I know They're actually a pair of Wolf underseat cans from my old VFR 800, which I had lying around after selling it and after a bit of jiggery pokery I managed to fit

They may not look as nice as a Remus or whatever, but they certainly look better than the original lump and have saved 6kg in weight to boot.

Another pic.......

 

[Muppet]

Crap, tried to upload a recording of the noise they make, coz it's ferking loud but it won't accept an MP3 file. What do I need to convert it to to stick on here?

Oh, the apology?

102db at tickover

115db at full chat........

 

[Muppet]

Ok, lets try this.....hopefully this link will work so you can hear the rather crappy recording I made of these things.

Click here for MP3 file

You'll need to right click on it, then choose 'save as' .......whatever you like really. It's about 300kb.

 

[Iain Hogg]

Left click in IE6 and RealPlayer played it straight off.

Reminded me of the Portaloos at last years Hog Roast

 

[Commuter]

Great

Posting across fora........

You have, of course had it on a rolling road and checked the the mixture is ok, havent you...? And you did see the thread about the guy who melted a piston on his 1150 didn't you...?

And......Keith's still right. You're a bloody hooligan.

Well, like I was saying on t'other site.........

No, not yet, but I shall oh wise one.

I have, and am duly warned and aware

You may be right

 

[Paul Wakefield]

Sounds great. BUT

One more step towards getting bikes banned.

[Bikerbear]

Great sound - just woke the neighbours - they thought the bike was in THEIR bedroom and not mine!

should have turne the volume down on the PC!

 

[MasterDabber]

You're going to need those Ultimate ear plugs that Judge has suggested having along to the Hog Roast!
Great sound... great way to go deaf as well.

 

[Den]

Well, frankly, i am appauled. I expected to hear the gentle burble of the mildly tuned boxer twin, but what are my ears subjected to ?..... a raucus cacophony of downright hooliganism. I almost bit through the stalk of my pipe with fury. Mrs Den dropped a stitch.
I totally concur with our genie friend and must protest loudly, or should that be ..quietly regarding the anti social nature of your steed.
My old labrador just about had kittens when a similar sounding motorbike hurtled through our village while we were on our daily amble. It was the talk of the post office for days.
May I suggest that we sanction this particular lad by not responding to such postings, and suggest the moderator give him a severe ticking off by personal message.
I also blame the people who decided to have exhaust silencers sticking up at jaunty angles which seems to be all the rage nowadays, this encourages the type of cyclist who follow the racing brigade.
My God man .... Some of us fought hitler to prevent this sort of tomfoolery.

Now where was I ............. oh yes.. Geraniums.

 

[Paul Wakefield]

Personally I think we should all have aftermarket cans and the general unappreciative populace should have Government issued earplugs. Unfortunately life is not like that.

Noisy cans make us generally unpopular, bloody awful accident statistics have woken government up again. We're playing quoits (whatever that is) on the deck while the ship goes down beneath us. Probably won't affect us greatly but our kids' generation - no chance.

Makes Marvin the paranoid android sound as if he has been on the happy pills, doesn't it.

[(RIP) maverick]

Muppet that sounds wicked dude!! I actually like the look of them and let us know how your fuel consumption etc does with the new mod.

If you can't stand the noise stay out of the road

 

[BATMAN]

cans

i suppose it's criticism that keeps the world a balanced place - the right to 'speak out' n' all that.

your bike
.. your cans
... your choice

.. you're happy

some folks never acheive that.

keep on keepin' on mate

[notadrop]

Oh yes!!!!:grndevil :illbe

 

[sparkplug]

But do your panniers still fit?

 

[Flying banana]

. Oh thats f&*^^$g outrageous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Should be banned! Oh it is innit. As an Hofficer of the Law, I shoudl admonish you severly, and issue you with the apppropriate Fixed Penalty, in fact you should go straight to Court





However, it does sound rather good, if a teensy bit loud, as in , my ears are bleeding
