Bit like Liverpool has blugger all to do with decent football....

You guessed wrong, there's no football at all in the Liverpool that I'm associated with.   That's the way it goes, I guess.

    It's got everything to do with loud exhausts - It's illegal to modify a bike once it has left the factory ( only exception is TIS stamped exhausts, which meet the 95db noise limit ) .   As s

  • What are you on about, what's it got to do with loud exhausts Harley's are allowed up to 99 decibels reading.

It's 95DB for all bikes - maybe it's 99DB on planet Zogg,. where you spend much of your time -  but not here in Thailand.

What you know ain't worth knowing.

Recently in the last couple of months read a Thai road laws page on TIS exhaust because my bike didn't have TIS 28 years ago. 

Found a page on noise and it stated there 95 for small bikes 99 for big bikes.

I was gonna save it I wish I did now. 

In 1999 the standard was 95 dBA for up to 125cc and 99 for > 125cc.  In 2000 the standard was amended to read 95 dBA for all.  Now, there may be later changes.

Certainly not a Harley - Thats for sure.

 

6 bikes ? - it's usual, apparently, when a bloke brags about something - He's lacking in other areas...

 

i've got just the 1,  btw ...

Bloke ? - Ain't from there

A bit like having multiple horses? Each for a different use. 

Usually guys that equate things to lack of masculinity are themselves wanting.

That's a gay scoot. ????

It's another completely different meaning to riding a Night Rod. ????

In the TIS 341-2528 (1985) the noise limit for all was 100 dBA. 

 

The USA is a mess with different rules for every State.  Many don't have a specified dBA level so you're at the mercy of the cops.  Others say no louder than the stock muffler.  Those that do specify a limit vary from about 80 to 95 dBA.

I haven't noticed a crackdown. I've had 2 bikes with aftermarket exhausts go through the checks in the last month and both have aftermarket exhausts and both passed, including a Ducati with a Termignoni full system. Both also have the licence plate under the tail section.

 

Although I did notice that on the Ducati they only tested the right side exhaust for sound and emissions. Since the bike has one exhaust pipe for each cylinder (one on each side of the bike) they must be only recording about 50% of the total. I was going to point that out to them, but by the time I had finished watching the episode of Squid Game on my phone, they'd already finished the test. Oh well, never mind ????.

Reading the Thai law roads rules as you said as broken pistons said it's ammended to all 95db, a couple of pages on it reads about testing mentioning 95db & over 125cc 99db. 

 

The TIS stamp seems to be a problem for many riders here. 

At my testing Station and our local DLT it's not a problem.

 

In UK it's 74db and is checked at MOT before MOT you can fit aftermarket but race cans are stamped not for road use. 

 

Exhaust system designs can be quite different now with catalytic's and valve systems.

 

My old bike in UK would be allowed through the MOT at 87db because it's still the OEM original exhaust design from the manufacturing date. 

 

I would have no objection to fitting a TIS muffler but not until our test station tells me.

I don't care about the noise and the old crusties who don't like it. 

 

Why didn't your sodding ABS warn us about road works and semi-off road riding on the 101.

A shame but part of motoring culture seems to be making noise and causing nuisance. Same in USA, where half the dogs are pit-bulls and people parade around revving engines. What are they going to do when Harleys go all electric, install a loudspeaker with a 750-Watt 

amplifier to simulate exhaust noise?
