Bugger.... the Evil One within is speaking to me again.....and the two words he whispers incessantly are "boom tubes".....  I love this look on M1100 >>
<<  but living as I do in the People's Republic of Victoria, I fear eternal incarceration if I I'm found to be violating noise regulations with my drive-by window-shattering mobile Thunder Box.  So when compared to Termis, how loud are we talking? Anybody?

They are loud, but Mark can make different "baffles."  After the holidays, I'm going to order another set to quiet things down a bit.

The look, fitment and weight savings are great.

P.S. is the vertical cylinder header missing in that pic?   Huh?

As pompetta said, Mark can make baffles to make them as loud or quiet as you like.

If you don't already know - MotoCreations are making a new line of exhausts, keeping the boom and adding bass.
Wait/save for that?

That's what I'm waiting for.  Going to be called the monoBOOM and Mark says teaser pics next month.

Why is it that we always seem to be thinking the same things Ungeheuer.
New bikes each of us.

- clip-ons (you old Tall Boys)
- Gold wheels
- Black/Red/Gold theme
- Now thinking Boom Tubes.....

Were we twins separated by the state at birth!

quiet low bass boomtubes? WANT. Love the low thudding sound of termis, but Boom tubes are way to loud.

if you research the testing method and db limit, I bet Mark could test some baffles that could meet your limits.

he said it would be the 95db range max. im assuming thats as loud as it gets for the regular way they test for sound. at a certain distance, at a certain RPM. it would certainly be above 100db while riding...which is fine for me.
