Default Remus sound level

I got given a sound level tester at work today, when the h&s bloke had a clear-out.

3/4 of max rpm at 0.5m from the exhaust = 107 db(A)

The limit at Castle Combe is 105 db(A).

Will have another go with the baffle in soon, hopefully it'll pass!

It should do, the Revolution (I'm assuming that's what it is) is fully model-specific homologated for each bike, which for Germany means it's pretty quiet.

I wonder if the revolution-gp is also ec-certified.

According to the Remus-importer for Benelux it is even not available for a k3, but I was last weekend in London and there it simply is listed for a K3 in the Remus-catalogue ??? Maybe the revolution-gp is just "road approved" as you call it?

Anyway, don't think the sound differs a lot

Well it's a bit funny.

The revolution-gp is E-stamped allright but it doesn't come with specific homologation-papers as the plain Revolution does.

It's also only available in the UK !

So in countries like Germany they might ask for these papers, should carry them with you.
But I think for me here in Belgium it's ok if the can is visible E-stamped.

Of course if u wanna be sure and plan to go to Germany, better choose for the Revolution.

But personally i think the revol.-gp fits the sv better, it's slimmer than the revol.

D. Dave, Stramasher,

if one of you got a revolution-gp is it possible to tell me what is exactly e-stamped on the can?

would be great, Thanks.
