Last time i went to castle coombe, you take your bike in there noise hut, where you rev it to 8000rpm and they stick something down your exhaust to see how loud it is...and this was on a standard can..

Do you remember what it measured at?

mw rang Castle Combe today and they said the noise limit for Wednesday was 105 as well. I'd think we'd be ok for that but I'm more curious about the requirement to be up to current MOT standard!

Has anyone taken them up on this? I've been meaning to ring them this week ...

I find that hard to believe, coz how many trackday addicts would have a bike with an MOT?

I would understand it better, if they mean a bike which would pass scrutneering standards, but as most people wouldn't know what that was, they've used MOT as a recognised standard?

Dunno :puzzled:

Thanks Ian, is it safe to assume this was an R1 with standard cans? Or an R6?

i cannot beleive they will enforce MOT standard it would be a nightmare to marshall..........a previous poster mentioned he saw many race bikes there without an issue the only issue is noise not wether its a legal can or not etc...........

tony are you gonna ring em and try and get a fianite answer on the noise cans and mot.?

TP 13-May-2005 10:25

Yeah I'll ring them today.
