I like the throughty sound of the 1000cc plus race bikes - and wouldn't mind that sound from my 914.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SUZUKI-MOTO...567336056QQrdZ1 I put a banana style muffler on my 1.7 exhaust on my 2.0 engine but man is it loud - obnoxiously so - especially at night. I thought that maybe I could cut the muffler of off my muffler assy and install a motorcycle type for nicer sound and be quiter also - this one is rate 80db. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2001-Kawasa...567604117QQrdZ1 Jim |

You are 1000% correct - I guess header stuck in my head after doing the search in ebay several different ways. At idle it sounds very fine but right now with my rear window out and my engine cover off - 3-4-5000 rpm is too loud for a ride thru most neighborhood. Maybe it is just me not being used the the db level of a 914. Jim
