Loudest Idle

I’m just wondering if anyone has had there cars Decibel range checked and what you’re idle was. Mine was a staggering 89.1 DP’s and with half a shot it was 122dp's LMAO. Legal in my area is only 96 DP’s so I'm only 7 away when I idle anyone else have the same outcome?

oo ok, good, from wht u wrote i could have sworn u wernt talking abt tht.


thts pretty darn loud for an idle.... probably to loud for comfort, cant image driving and WOT noise

now im slightly interested in mine, my idle is pretty quite, not driving noise. a buddy of mine has a windsheild sound gauge, might check for ***** and giggles.

yea mine is way over the legal limit but all the bikes around hear are way louder than me but i would get puller over 10x's faster than anyone of them because cops like bikes and not tuners.

anyone louder than mine?

motorcycles dont have to pass emissions...
their volume is also a safety feature to warn cars of their locations since they frequently zip around in traffic etc.
