| 137862 | 2003-04-22 10:28:00 | That's about as close as I reckon we'll get , here Yes, well almost (a boy racer) I used to race trail bikes way back before the japanese factories manufactured true enduro bikes. We had to modify either trail bikes or motocross bikes. Four stroke bikes benefited from a better muffler, one brand of which was "Basani" (or similar spelling) and they had a formula as a kind of motto. I don't remember the true formula but it roughly translated into :- Less noise = greater horse power I would like to get the formula correct and to see it adopted by the 'boy racers' with their noisy mufflers ........... |
