I believe it was designed by their head of exhaust developement Olaf Prilo.  ::)



Maybe they could adapt this....

The real funny thing is ...there’s probably (or certainly will be fairly soon) a market for such an item. Let’s face it, who would miss the noise of a bike engine if/when we all have to go down the lecci route 🤦???

I'm sure there is a thing for cars that replicates different engine noises ( in the cab). It might be a good idea for Electric bikes - "what shall I ride today? ....Big Harley V twin, CBX -6, Classic single, or maybe 2 stroke triple?"...

Yes I was thinking on similar lines Steve. My mate, has a mate who reckons he could do that sort of thing quite easily. There again he does write alga rhythms for a living. Clever beggar.
He even says it wouldn’t be that hard to have it so that the more you twist the throttle the louder the sound, just like a “real” bike. 🤷???
