Blue Flame silencer
andrew.carwithen - 11/4/07 at 09:23 PM

I've got the chance to buy a Blue Flame bike silencer with two outlet ports (same as pic below). Its nice and short (approx 500mm) which is ideal as I'm very limited on length of can that will fit between manifold and rear arch.
It is fully road legal (appropriatly stamped) but has a removeable baffle to change it to a race can if so wished and its also very light.
In its quieter road guise, does anybody know if it would pass SVA with respect to noise levels? Has anyone fitted one? Any comments appreciated.

Thanks for the reply, Lee.
What pecentage of maximum revs did they carry out the test at Elvington? (I see that SVA test at 3/4 max revs and needs to be sub 101db.)
Does anybody know if the fact that I also have a lot of induction noise due to having a sausage filter, effect the meter reading at SVA? or is the meter situated low enough to not pick it up?

Cheers,
Andy.
