    It's stuck on a box and the cloaking device is playing up too.

    If you want to hear loud. You should hear this thing below.

    A friend has one. With stock exhaust it is crazy loud. With the race cans on which are an optional extra. It is truly MotoGP loud. If you have ever heard a MotoGP in real life on full chat you will understand

    Fantastic piece of machinery though.

    I remember my first track day training session type thing, we all left the paddock and rolled around to the start line, engines off whilst waiting for the trainer to come out .... I was at the very back and infront of me must have been about 10 Ducatis half of them with "works" engines and race cans, the full spec.

    The guy gets to the front of the grid and raises his hands and everyone starts there engine .... considering I was wearing a helmet, ear plugs and a balaclava, the noise and heat were astounding ..... it was just a wall of abuse hitting me

    I was once so hungover after drinksping pints of cheap red wine in a curry house that at a set of red lights I had to get off my moto-sickle and ask the man on the GSXR in front of me to turn off his engine as it was hurting my head.
