2016 stock can noise level,,,,

[bimmymak]

I'm going to silverstone next Sunday and was wondering how the db level is on the stock can (2015/2016)

Has anyone been with a stock can with the baffle in or out??

Many thanks once again.

I'm fairly sure my baffle was out at brands. Just take it with you and you can put in if needed.

Noise Testing

When I previously had my OEM exhaust noise tested it measured 100.5 dB at 5,500 rpm with the baffle left in.

 

[and rr ew]

Only makes 93db's at a steady 5500 rpm, the sound drop considerably when held at a steady Rev, think the set valve closes. Strange but try it, my yoshi passed at oulton but failed the drive by , so fitted standard without baffle and wasn't stopped after that !
hope that made sense ?

You are right there..

Last time I went to Silverstone it was tested at 75% of max, that's 10500rpm

Cool beans.

Thanks all.

A lot depends on where the testing points are around the track. I was black flagged on my stock 2015 S1K at Snetterton on the pit straight, 106db apparently.

What group you will be riding?
Ive been this year at silverstone and in inters they haven't check db just in fast group.

 

[bimmymak]

I'm in the novice group.
Also it's the training academy track day as this is my first time on a track ever so I wanted to be shown the ropes.

Any other advise anyone wants to chip in?

You won't be getting black flagged for noise on a BMW training day bimmy assuming you've got a stock exhaust on, that really would be crazy. Advice? Check your oil level before you go, fill up with fuel before you get there so you're not fannying about finding fuel after your forst session, drop your tyre pressures a few psi, pull your mirrors in and enjoy it

 

[bimmymak]

Cool.

Many thanks for that.

i know most have done track days here but I'll post Anyway after and share my experience.

Can't wait
Just hope it stays dry.
