sound

Bought what I thought were "slip-ons" - under $500 so no complaints. But they were NOT slip-ons; they required that the cat(s) and EXUP be removed and THEN slipped on. I have an easier solution: simply remove the stock (UGLY) mufflers and weld on some chrome tips, available at any muffler shop

97 VMAX 25K; Ive been noticing a minute clicking sound coming from the speedometer at speed only. Anyone else heard this ? What was the issue / solution ? My first guess I hope...lubrication ?

Evening all, I know i could go hunting on youtube for what i am after, but thought i'd ask you guys first. No point joining the forum and not taking part it. I have only ever known the engine/exhaust noise of my XJR. Do you have either soundbites or videos of a full power gen1 that i...

hello bike had some issues holding idle,because ignition coils had seen better days... installed COPS and sync the carbs and all was well: no more misfires,starts easier and a very nice idle sound,like a diesel lope or a aggressive cammed engine,with the tach needle showing just that with a...

How do you install a sound system on a Max ??? You don't.! You buy an "Ultimate Ears Boom box". LOL I got this cool device from my wife as a 25th Anniversary present. Its loud, durable, water proof & Blue tooth compatible. I can run it from my phone with SiriusXM Satellite music, or plug in my...

So I noticed something that bothers me on the vmax. It may be normal on it but I've never heard it before so maybe some of you more technical folk could enlighten me on this. Everytime I am standing at a light or something and I have the vmax in first (or probably any other gear), I shift to...

Yeah, another thread on engine sound:bang head: noticed a very noticeable tapping sound from the right front cylinder can't tell if it's the the intake cam or the exhaust cam making it. Sounds like a lifter tap. If any expiernced mechanics know what I'm talking about. It's a 97 max with 18,000...

Hello, some time ago my bike started to make a tick-tick sound which was not always noticeable. Now when the bike is cold the sound is sometimes there, but once it gets hot at normal working temperature, the sound seems very loud and its always there as you can hear from the movies. The...

Hi all, keep in mind that I am riding with a half helmet and windshield, so I hear a lot more sounds than most, prolly. First, when I nail it, around 6k up I can hear a light high pitched hammering sounds from the engine. Not that loud, but loudest thing this normaly quiet running engine is...

I was wondering this and wanted to ask for a while now... I have Sean's Kit installed but there's a lot of work to be done before she's Dynoed and tuned. Should a Kit make a noticeable difference in sound? I was already running Jon's Slashcuts 4-2 which were already tuned and Jetted and she...

Hello all, Noticed a whistling sounds during mild acceleration, aggressive acceleration I cant hear it over the purr of the engine, on the bike. As soon as I let off the throttle/pull in the clutch it goes away. Also, noticed if it is in neutral and I hit the throttle I don't hear it...

Could you confirm? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sG805HaDaAc

Here is a short clip of what it sounds like. Ok I admit it's really short, but the wife will complain even at that. Meant to do it before I put it in the garage. http://youtu.be/Zakx_ZXgrzo
