DB Killers for Aprilia Carbon cans?
Posted: Fri May 24, 2024 10:33 am
Hey all,
Yeah, I know... I shouldn't need to ask for these.
My car got pinged for being 'too loud' by some pissed off cop a few months back. It was a total balls-ache to sort out - get a new muffler, get the car noise tested, submit all the paperwork. All for something that's way quieter than some of the shitboxes on our roads. I never even saw the plod that pinged me for the car - all I got was a letter in the mail.
Now, the Falco is a lot, lot, lot louder than the car ever was and I'm now a bit paranoid about riding it. Hence the question - how hard is it to get a set of DB-killers for the factory SL-Carbon cans? And what impact would they have on performance?
Getting a set of stock Falco cans down here is next to impossible, and not something I want to do. Because they're ugly, weigh a ton, and sound like a huge long fart.
Cheers,
V.
(Or do I just give the middle finger to the establishment and keep riding the bike like it is?)
