any of you guys from the South West ?

I'm going for a sound test on Wednesday (CC) so I will report back how it goes....

 

Not well 116 DB........9750 RPM with the sensor as good as rammed up the pipe.

Loads of bikes failing...feel for the guy who had driven up from lands end!!!

 

they just don't like bikes !

 

I think you are right. My Panigale was either 116 or 119, cant remember, but passed at Brands Hatch!!!!

 

Anyone know of a pipe for the blade that will get past Dooms sound testing?

 

Im after the same thing myself, not for castle combe but just to get it down to 100 say so i haven't got to use the db killer, I'm half tempted to get something made at longlife exhausts

 

Rode Pembrey for the first time last weekend and it was a far far better track than I was expecting. Theres no garages and very little power but I found the track brilliant.

Breaking from about 140mph to 30 for the first corner is pretty intense whilst praying someone doesn't T-bone you as you turn in and the kink on the back straight taken at over 100mph is mega and a bit scary.

 

yes its a great track i rode it for the first time few weeks ago and found it very physical, like you say lots of hard breaking

 

Getting a weekend pass from Mrs T is the hard part. How are they on sound testing, it's listed as 102DB but I am sure I read some where they are quite lax?

 

They weren't too rigid on sound testing but then again it was a race weekend.

 

Db killers a must, I was slightly over with mine in so was told to to go to one side and warm bike up, they tested me again which was still slightly over but they allowed me on

 

Cheers what pipe were you running?

 

Full arrow, it's the factory one so they didn't do a db for it so I had to make one, it's about 110 without 103/4 with, iv got a meter if you want me to check yours ?

 

Thanks - it could be useful. I tried using a sound app on the phone and its not that accurate. I was looking at a GP2 slip-on, arrow claim 101DB at 6000RPM on their web site. Not sure how accurate that is or weather that would even pass CC 9750RPM test.

 

Pembrey is great
Hoping to get over there soon on one of the Phil Bevan days. I always thought they were quite strict on the 102 limit, last time I was there a few failed :/

 

Yup, i failed and was sent to one side to warm bike up more, not sure what i read but was told i was close and allowed on, yes I'm looking to do another, think the next one is 13-14 june
