This bike is now bearable. It’s been a hoot since I got it but the noise has made me not want to ride.

It’s so much better now. I was out for 2 hours and only came home ‘cause I had to piss.

Now that the bike is bearable I can finish the 1:12 bike.

Should be paintable tomorrow. A frog wouldn’t get out of the way to ride today.

I moved him and he came right back to the same spot.

Stupid frog.

How hot is it out there? It’s possible Mr Frog was just trying to stay cool by lying on the concrete slab.

Also, earplugs are your friend when motorcycle riding. Not just for the exhaust but for the deafening wind noise.

Today is the first day I didn’t need ear plugs. I want to hear the world around me, and I don’t want to piss off the neighbors.

The frog on the other hand was definitely trying to cool down. It was hot as hell today.

I’m glad you got the noise down to a tolerable level. I t may have been the precise reason the previous owner stopped riding it.

He'll never admit it, but I think you're right

Yeah, that’s the way to go. I get a lot of people asking why I haven’t removed mine. I can hear my bike through the helmet, earplugs and the Cardo  on max volume. It doesn’t need to be louder.

I was about to order the stock exhaust with the cat. This is fantastic. I still get the awesome exhaust note, but it’s at an old person decibel level.

I really don't want to need earplugs.
