DB Killers in 50mm Termi on a 748. Comments
 
My neighbours are falling seriously out of love with my noisy bike (they said a clock fell off the wall tonight - ooops :)) so I'm thinking of getting some of those DB Killer removable baffles.

Any experiences/comments?

Do they make a big difference to the noise levels?

Where can I buy 'em and how much?

Are there going to be any fuelling/chip issues with the baffles in?

I'm on a standard 748BP engine with a 50mm Termi half-system (Y-piece and pipes) and a JHP open pipe chip.

yeah, i saw those on my own trawl of ebay, but they look different to the DB killers i have seen, which have a bend in 'em (like what termis do).

have you or anybody known to you ever used the A16 items?

yep,

Got a set fitted to my 50mm Termis on the sps. Seem to work ok really. Had to drill a little hole at the bottom of each pipe to fit a small bolt to secure em. Use em for MOTs etc. Oh and When I take the bike to work.

From a distance it makes the pipes look almost standard and knocks of the "boom" that the race can makes. Does not seem to affect the running of the bike either.

My even work out better on your 748 engine as mine is a 996 with full 50mm system so may have a bit more bass.

yeah, i saw his stuff, but couldn't read the auction info.... not overly concerned with issues about their quality, as the bosch are a bit handy with the old light engineering, so no doubt the stuff is well manufactured, just was worried i might not be buying the correct item.

price? perhaps the other chap's baffles are not priced per pair?

bit of a daft question.....will 48mm be the right size for 50mm ends?
