i am looking at buying a TwoBros full pipe for my beloved but need to know how loud it really is. Has anyone had their 09 on noise tested with this pipe on and how loud was it in decibels. In the uk the race tracks are clamping down on noise.

If a full pipe is below 105db at 8krpm there is a good chance of it being 98db with the suppresor in. Any higher and i can't buy the pipe.

Thx guys

Two bros come with baffles so will be fine for track

not sure of the exact decibels but they are REALLY deep and loud. I think my yoshi is louder at high rpms cuz its a bit higher pitched but the twobros scrambled my brain when i rode behind one during our NC group ride

the baffle is claimed to reduce the noise level by 6-7db which is fine but if the pipe is 109db with no baffles in it only reduces it down to 102db its no good for 98db days which are becoming more common. I do have a cunning plan though if need be.

I have full 2bro on my 08 6r I go track 6-8 times a month trus it will be good with the baffle

which baffle do you use. The main problem now is the 98db days coming in more and more. I cant afford to have a system which won't pass this. I do over 20 track days a year so think that the TwoBros one isnt suitable. If i did more road riding i wouldn't be bothered by noise:)

The standard one that came with the exhaust and like i said i do 6-8 a month without fail with my full shortened 2bros exhaust with a shortened baffle and have never had a problem I do as many track days as u do in a year in 2 months easy.

so far, everyone i've ridden with says my pipe is the loudest they've heard. i just love that its not a bad loud. i hate those loud echo-ey rattle cans. two bros is loud and mean. never will i use a silencer :thumbdown:

Haha yea I believe we equally hate riding on each others pipe side. You 2 actually have the exact same set up, which can do you have?
