Are you running a spark arrestor at Miami?
With all the fire danger here I don't want to ride without it and possible start one. Gotta get one for the 250 and mine since it's wide open [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Are there noise limits there to test beforehand?
CA limit is 96dBA anywhere. Is it enforced at Miami, not to my knowledge. There isn't even a place I think that would qualify for the SAE test (i.e. flat with nothing around it.) I've heard some seriously loud bikes there. Just keep it quiet if the Ranger is around. The joke is "Yeah, that's 96 decibals." Followed by wiping the blood away from your ears.

And spark arrestors are required pretty much everywhere but the dunes. That's one that they do check. Mainly there they check for stickers and spark arrestors.

We have a place out by the canal we can ride with no hassles. Its about 5 miles from my house. I have only rode there a dozen times or so. Mainly just to test things I had tried or a engine I just built.

I run a spark arrestor on all my toys and everything is at or under 96db. Except for the CR500, is at 99db but is a '85 and thats cool for it. I have never been sound tested at any riding area. But I have had a few of my toys sound tested at off road races. KTM 94db CR500 99db CR250 96db WR250 92db YZ80 90db

Years ago I was sound tested at a trials ride I entered. Had the mighty TL250 with a exducer silencer which was tunable and pretty loud. It passed without a problem but the tester didn't see that the exhaust exited out the right side before the shock and pointed to the right [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] He was standing behind it and the meter would not be pointing at it, but 90 degrees away[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
