    Hi folks,
    I have an fbomb on my 2015 Lowrider. Compliance in SA is 94DB according to the local compliance officer.
    I have a feeling this exhaust will exceed this limit.
    Are there any baffles db killers available?
    Someone in another forum suggested taking the baffles out and wrapping extra fiber glass around them.
    Any ideas anyone?

    Thanks

    Here in Perth WA, the way the pits have gone of late, only way of passing the dB meter is stock HD headers and mufflers.

    A right cunty job, siezed /rusty bolts blah blah.

    Also depends a wee bit on the "reason" for the test.

    Did your Rego expire ? Is it an interstate bike ? Were you seen as a bollox by the Polizei ?

    And so on.

    Easy to say now, but that's why you keep the original exhaust for the bike WITH the bike. Folks often don't !

    Yeah, I bought the bike un reg from a dealership in Vic and had it brought over to SA. No stock exhaust. Compliance officer said it will be tested for noise when inspected. Might have to borrow one from a service center to pass then get them to refit the fbomb. thanks for the reply.
