These are kind of loud, but the song is sweet, fine for the daily commute and short trip.  If used my Triumph for longer trips, I'd want something quieter.

There's also the added safety benefit of knowing that in traffic, I can be heard if not seen.


Docman,
They won't hear you. They are too busy talking on their cell phones.

Last week, a young girl of 4 or 5 standing on the sidewalk, covered her ears as I approached and passed her at mid throttle.
Perfect!!!

I'm running a Pacesetter, 6 into 1 header and Monza exhaust.  
I should have someone record me, so I can hear what it sounds like outside the vehicle as I pass - sounds great from inside.

Ok got exhaust silencer today, and it will not want to bolt to where the old standard one was.

Can anyone post a photo of the underneath of their standard 15oo spitfire? I am fitting the gt6 rear sports silencer to a standard bore resonator off 2ltr vitesse and i am a bit short on pipework so some jiggery-pockery will be in order :'(

Thanks
Scott

I think this is the manufacturer of the Bell silencer, there will be a GT6 and a Spitfire model as the input pipe diameter is slightly smaller on a spit.

The GT6 middle resonator came from a s/hand GT6 stainless system i bought of Ebay for £30, the same system at Rimmers http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-RG1024SPORT the part you need is 1 S/S Intermediate Pipe GT6 MK3 - Part No. GEX1680SSF if you can buy it seperatly?(notice how much bigger the standard silencer is over the sports silencer)

I used a GT6 inter pipe with a spit silencer, a bit of cutting and bending but it will easily fit, all second hand so no biggy if i cocked it up but you are buying new i would get the GT6 silencer with the GT6 inter pipe then an adapter to suit the spit 4 branch or front pipe
