Default as per

Just to put the cat amongst the pidgeons When your bike was given type approval the levels for the silencers were as follows

Silencer------E4 0192
90dB @ 4500rpm

These are the figures that came off my VIN sticker on the nearside chassis

So, if I don,t have a can fitted that conforms to these specs is my bike illegal ????

Or looking at the other side of the coin as the sticker is on the bike already why do I need one on the can and unless the police have a calibrated decibel meter[ only one in the Essex Traffic Div which hasn't been used for 2yrs] ThereforE any judgement is down to the individual officers "ear" I doubt if anybody can have ears so in tune to as be decibel
calibrated The whole thing MOT/POLICE/LAW is a farce that any good scolicitor would rip to shreads in court

ALL THESE QUESTIONS ------HAS ANYBODY ACTUALLY BEEN DONE?
