M4 Users-How loud is it really?


RIP

Recommended Posts

I've read a few threads here on the M4 and it seems to get some mixed reviews. Some say its to loud and others say is perfect

 

Watched a few YouTubes vids and its hard to tell

 

So the questions are really, does your neighbors hate you, do your ears ring after a few hours of riding, have you gotten tickets?

 

All questions are with the DB killer in

Don't ride it like an idiot till out of your neighborhood. Neighbors will love you no matter what you're riding.

 

Wear ear plugs and enjoy the ride all day.

 

Be judicious with the right twist grip & leave the front wheel down, especially around the constabulary.

M4 exhausts typically have to be repacked every 3000 miles or so.  Correct me if this has changed but thats how al my other M4 exhausts have been. As loud as it is new, it's even deeper and louder when the packing has burned out.

Mine has close to 10K on it as well. I rode it for a long time without the baffle and my ears would ring/hurt after about an hour. With the baffle in I don't have that problem. Doesn't sound as good though.

Got over 10k on my M4 with no issues, never use the baffle and it is loud, I use earplugs and no one has gotten after me about it being too loud.

For sure. It’ll take a few days as I’m also going to add an air box and get it flashed. But I’ll be sure to report back

 

FWIW, I use to run a Kerker pipe back in the day with a GS850, and that was pretty loud but tolerable.....so I’m hoping it’s a little less DB’s then that, but we’ll see what happens

Welp, I put it on, and I’m okay with it, but  it’s a little to loud for my neighbors 

 

So I’m going to put it up for sale.....$350 to pick up or $400 to ship

 

If anyone is interested let me know

I love the sound mine makes. I think it depends on who you are but I think its just loud enough. can get a little droneeee on the highway but other than that I think its sounds as it should. no issue with the packing on mine, but only about 3k
