Cheers Nigel, and yes I totally agree. I too prefer a quite exhaust and if possible one (as in underseat?) that's not seen either. That's what I like about the Taylormade; it's looks. I don't like it's loudness so have actually fitted the optional 'dB killer' baffle that supposedly cuts it down from 104dB to a whisper quitenab 301 wrote:Looking good to me either way Nick , although, maybe I'm a traditionalist who prefers an exhaust to be seen and not heard if I have the choice
On the Taylormade website the DB's seem to be horrendous or is there a road version also?
102dB. Seriously though, yes, I'm aware that 104 is almost twice as loud as 102 but it's still LOUD and I expect problems come MOT time. Since most people buy it for its 'looks' I do wonder why they don't make a street legal exhaust. Even if it knocked 10mph off the top end I'm sure folk would buy it. But I could be wrong.
