Sposed to go to Castle Coombe tomorrow, they have strict noise regs usually but as its privately hired, the limit for tomorrow is 105DbA, measured at 3/4 revs from 0.5 metres away....

Do I have a hope in hell of getting the bike thru the checks? :(

you should.......i understand all the 916/996/998 range were 105 with termi's. but under new homologation rules the new 749/999 are now just 102.

How about if they have needed repacking for the last 4000 miles? :devil:

Crap isnt it? 105dB is twice as loud at 102dB.

...are you sure Tim? 105 is friggin loud. I've been checked before with my race Micron on the CB500 and it was 103 I think. Don't know how it compares.

Is it a one off check or random/constant throughout the day.

Thats a amazing noise level for Castle Combe, its tighter than that at the New ERA meetings that I usually race in there
