C'mon folks. It was a serious question.

You ride with a MOUTHFUL of a burrito, of course. Then instead of mouthing the sound 'ring-a-ding-ding..' it's more like 'whung-a-dung-dung'. When the sound gets back to the ring-a-ding..take another bite.


If it's a deeper sound you're after..and you have an aftermarket S/A..repack it. Correctly helps.

I've HEARD that excessive exposure to radon gives you gas.....now I know!!

Anyone have a link to that ringy dingy audio thing? I've seen several different descriptions..what was designed, what you got (what you paid for). Used to be on the front page of a CR500 website..but I don't find it around anymore.

Who knows what I'm talking about...

THERE's your 250!!

(neither of Matt's link work for me..maybe that's it?)

You'll definitely sound like a 250 but you'll need to stop every couple miles and clean out the shorts. :butthead:

Eat 4 cheap 7-11 Bean Burritos and you'll sound like a KX 500. :mrgreen:
Maybe that's what all that black crap really is on Carvr's fender

Yeah it does sound a bit strange, i guess. Terrible is going a bit far, maybe he was eating a burrito???

My bike is extremely quiet with the stock pipe and Fmf Q, when that fatty comes in it's gonna be louder :cry:

Sounds like he could drop a gear or two

Sure making alot of noise but not amounting to much, except maybe lots of wheelspin
