You can try and mask it anyway you want but it still sounds like a V6.

fine for me... the idle on these engines sounds ok (not the high idle) but when you get into it it is kinda rice-ish

The exhaust manifolds aren't setup well for scavenging/sound. It'* much more involved than how many cylinders you have, Boxer Subbies just growl, and BMW Inline 6'* just HOWL..

Ya know, I never knew that hissing sound was normal. I always thought there was something wrong with Charlotte. People in high school would give me wierd looks when I would start her after school. Still don't know why they do that but at least ole girl was just fine :P

Just sitting at the Toronto Pearson airport killing some time between flights.......

what happend to that wicked sweet light you had?
Because I'm leaving the Bullet with my wife for the next 6 weeks, I don't want it to ingest any rain.............not that she would ever drive it in the rain.
It will go on again when I return in June.

That much treasured ram air light was custom made by Peterg22000.
