Best Sounding Bikes Ever??? - Page 2

I have to agree, TLRs are great. I've never heard one with the magical Yoshi system, but even simple Blue Flame slip-ons sounded amazing. Much more raw and with more "impact" than the RCs I've heard with exhausts. Some of the recent Ducati 1098s and 1198s I've heard with exhausts are similar.

The first time I realized I had to start paying attention to bikes was after being behind an old Duc 851 (back when they were new) with an exhaust at a light. I still remember the admiring "What the hell is that!?" feeling I got from hearing it.

I thought my tls with yoshi slip ons sounded awesome but have heard a few rc's and TL's with full system that sounded awesome.

its a similar deal, 990 triple reverse spun with a head designed by the cosworth F1 team. they say once it got on powerband it would try to tear your arms out and eat you. Haga binned it 28 times in one year. pure monster
