Bottom line is a 90 db loud thumper will be heard farther away than a 90 db loud 2 stroke..

That was at the beginning of the 4 stroke craze (or take over) .. Back then MX'ers were in the 99 db range... as 4 strokes took over that same 99db was heard farther away... Now the AMA is in the 93 db range and tracks are not closing as quick..


Yes they do..

I got a apples and oranges story of my own..


My KTM 400 checks about 91db... I ride a lot with my sons and their friends..most ride 2 strokes in the 97-100 db range... I can sneak up on and pass any of them in the woods.. they tell me they never even knew I was there until I go by..

Don't know how many times I've heard this same statement from the riders out of our shop! Plus sounds like you already know which bike to ride! I may be a little prejudiced on this though! Ever swing a leg over the 450 XC-W?? OPT
