Motorcycle Noise Bylaw

Hi all, I hope everybody is having a great day at Strato today!

Okay, so I went to the EPS noise testing site today at the NAIT South Campus. Here are the results:

Bike: 1998 TL1000S with Yosh RS-3 stainless straight through race pipes and a Yosh copy stainless header system:

  • idle: allowed: 92dB, measured 89.9dB
  • 5,000 rpm (three tries): allowed: 100dB, measured 98.8dB
Pretty close, but good enough. The popo said that I'd probably get pulled over at some point, but should be okay...I'm happy, for now.

Cheers,
Thorsten

I had my 1998 TLS tested on saturday as well.
Mine has a full Yosh Race system on it though.

Idle: 92 allowed - measured at 92.6
2000 rpm 96 allowed - measured at 94.8

2000 rpm is for a 2 cylinder @ 96 dB, 5000 rpm for a 4 cylinder at 100dB.

I had it tested at 4000 rpm as well just to see and it was 94.6 (quieter than at 2000 rpm).

Hi Brad, yes, I noticed afterwards that they actually tested for a three and four cylinder bike (idle and 5,000 rpm), so I never got the 2,000rpm measured...

Cheers,
Thorsten
