[QUOTE="Rubey, post: 1304990, member: 70175"] The following text is from a RacerX interview with Marc de Reuver after he took third in the first 450 moto at Southwick. "[B]You also have the Honda factory bike this time, too. Did you bring your suspension settings from Europe, or are you riding a purely American bike?[/B] At home, I also have the same bike. The exact same bike, same suspension, same engine... [I]it’s so loud! If you came with that bike in Europe at a practice track, they’d shoot you with a gun, man – the track owner. He’d lose everything when you come with a bike like that. So we put, like, a Europe muffler on – a longer one – but it’s still loud. And we put on a heavier flywheel to tone it down a bit. It’s still a little bit too fast for me, but I can handle it now[/I]." Point being... is that louder does not equate to being faster. [/QUOTE]
