...where if you put a frog in a saucepan of cold water and slowly apply heat it won’t notice the water boiling around it? This is the noise equivalent of that and it’s fucking awesome.

PS: what sort of sick bastard sits there boiling frogs to find out things like that?

Yes.

That doesn’t actually work on frogs. When it gets hot, they jump out.

That’s ace - the perfect thing to keep me awake while working late. Between that and exhaust-note goals for the 2000, I think I’m set for the night.

EDIT: Play them both at the same time. Even better.

I hope that it’s a myth has resulted in the disappointment of many childhood sadists...

Sweet god damn that’s the best sounding Triumph 6-pot I’ve heard!

I was in two minds as to whether I should put one silencer or a silencer and a mid-box on the Spit6. Now I’m thinking that none at all might be a perfectly viable option ;)

My thoughts exactly.

Mine doesn’t actually sound all that far off. Sure, not nowhere near as high-revving, but it’s got an ancient stainless sports exhaust on it, with a glasspack silencer that I suspect no longer has much filling left. Makes quite a racket, and that’s exactly how I like it.

Perfect :) I wonder how much glasspack silencers are. They seem like the perfect lack-of-silencing level to be just how I like it too ;)
