Hi, new here Embarassed

*waves* I just bought myself THE most beautiful NSR 125 (pictured)
https://gallery.cybertarp.com/albums/userpics/12394/NSR.jpg

Anyway, I bought this fabulous piece of two stroke recent history because it's just an amazing looking/running bike, took me ages to find it. Now that it's myne, I want to make it sound a little beefier, it sounds like a 125, thats my only problem, any ideas people? What can I do to this bike to make it a bit more raspier/growl-ish

any input would be fantastic!!!

The only way you can make it sound 'beefier' is by killing the performance. It doesn't sound like a 125, it sounds like a 2-stroke, which is a nice sound Very Happy

Welcome to the strangeness that is BCF Danny Clapping

Nice looking NSR you have there, as to how to make it sound nicer, the only suggestion I can make is to change the engine for something nice like a 900cc triple Twisted Evil

It sounds like a 2-stroke because it is, theres nothing wrong with that. At least u don't ride a 125 scooter...

If you want beef, pass your test and get a bigger bike Razz

Drill a hole in the exahaust. Laughing

But seriously don't take my advice, you'll want to listen to the vets. (Veterans as apposed to vetinarians) Mr. Green

To be honest there's not much you can do to make it sound different, without knackering performance.

It sounds like a 125 because it is a 125 - pass your test and upgrade to make it sound better Smile

If all you want is a beefier sound, get a 4 stroke 125.

You can't make it sound any better. Do your test ASAP, its a nasty little 125.

Bah take the baffles out the exhaust or cut the little pece of at the end of the exhuast. my old exhaust was like this and it was a fair amount louder.

Either that or put a nice DR650 engine in it! Mmmm Four stroke single loudness Very Happy
