Rockster Db

Post by lacrimosa »

I'd like to know how much Db my rockster produces...
I'm going to explore the Nürnburgring next month and Germans are very strict... The ring itself has a 96Db limit, regulations on German public roads are even stricter :?

I have a Remus Y-pipe, Remus Revolution muffler without Db killer.
Does anyone have a rough idea of the Db's produced?

I think I'll have to reinstall the Db killer, but that's as far as I want to go

The cotton inside the muffler has recently been replaced, so that shoud make some difference :)

just stick the baffle back in, it won't make any difference to the performance anyway.

Without the can it's 94db....a Y pipe will be a little louder but not much louder..you should be ok.

I have the same setup and the bike isn't that loud. I doubt that it's past 96-decibels.

I agree with Riceburner.....stick the baffle back in.

You can buy your own sound level meter from Radio Shack - they are not expensive. If I remember less than $50.
