Im friend's with there dad and there alway's over I take them along on ride's with me and 90% of the time I cant even hear my bike!!! so I would like to add a few more DB'S to the kdx tune.

Usually if they are loud, they need repacked. Mine was loud when I got my bike, but after I cleaned the perforated tube and repacked, I was really surprised at how quite it was. The main thing is regular maintenance on your silencer just like the rest of your bike. If you are getting oil spoo out the pipe the same stuff is soaking in to the packing and then it gets baked hard and will completely stop up the holes in the perforated pipe.
I like mine!

Had my turbine sound tested last week it was 88db, that was with fresh packing, the events we ride in this area allow 96db, also orv parks are the same, they are pushing for 94db, last year wa. almost passed a law for orv sound pollution, I hate to say it but that attitude is what is killing us show that kid you can be quite and fast. personally I would like to hear my bike also, cause I am very hard of hearing. but I like to ride so I try to keep it quite, ya never know someday you may be forced to ride at those orv parks someday
