And more (I hope you can understand the phrase) raspberry-ripping. Not your standard 'Blop... Blop... Blop... Blop...' - more of an angry deep ripping/cracking sound.
VERY VERY VERY nice tone. Definitely my cup of tea!
Mine have just over 2000 km and they seam to be getting louder every time I go for a long ride!!!
Well actually - the more I'm riding, the more I'm starting to REALLY opening the throttle, bit by bit...
This has proven that my long TOR's are now definitely NOT Swiss compliant!

I have tors but i'm considering trying this myself.

| | Posted : 01 Apr 2010 - 02:24 Post title : Re: OK, so I put on the long TOR's (Re: daz) | | | Well, I've already bought and put on the TOR's. I was told drilling holes in the back end of the pipes would help with volume. I might try that later. I am going to have a luggage rack made next to put on the bike, then i will take out the CAT. I guess I am having it commissioned. I've just always wanted to say that. I hope it fits.
