That sound

The CP3 platform, even with the stock exhaust, sounds *incredibly* good when you get on the throttle.  It goes from angry bees to that awesome roar.  

But what really does it for me is the intake sound.  I've never had a bike where the intake was as audible as with this one.  

That sucking sound is so good. I finally solved the wind noise with a new screen and had not expected I would so much pleasure just from listening to the engine. It almost doubles the fun. If only it hadn’t start snowing again today.. 🙄

All you intake sound lovers...Have you removed the front piece of foam on the underside of the tank?

It's prescribed when doing the ECU flash. I did it, and it's a bit louder.

I like it exactly as it is.. for now. 😀

I was able to move the microphone closer to the gas tank but not up towards the front. It's got a little more depth to it now but not a huge difference. Enjoy

 

Exactly what I want to hear on a video.  I like listening to the engine and gear changes vs. music.  Thanks for posting this.

@redfjniner - I just noticed this in your signature:  "2015 FJ-09:  100,920 m"

Are those US miles, like, you know... the long ones?  :)    

Glad to see these bikes consistently getting well into 6 digits.   I'm only 1/4 of the way there, so definitely need to get out and ride some more.

Yes, 101,461 US miles, A small increase since I posted those numbers.  Looking  great in March on a 350 mile ride to Sweet Home and Detroit, OR.

Hey, what are those hand covers you've got and do you like them? There are lots of varieties and I'm thinking about that route next winter.
