Hi everyone,
Fitted a pair of scorpions last weekend, rode the bike for about 20 miles and decided it was a little bit too quiet for my liking (DB killers fitted, as per UK law :spank.
Removed the DB killers today (that was fun ) and rode to a friend’s place just 9 miles away, when I got there I took my helmet off and found that my left ear drum felt very strange (sort of a numb feeling???).
Anyway on the ride home I experimented and found that in the fz6's resonance ranges (one at 3k and one between 6 and 8k roughly) the noise was physically uncomfortable/very unpleasant to listen to (this is without ear plugs).
Wondering if anyone else had this problem before after changing their exhaust?, was thinking that something isn't quite right as in the US the scorpions come without baffles, I can't see that any aftermarket exhaust should cause that sort of discomfort over such a short exposure/distance?
