Maybe this is a better example! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrEe...ature=youtu.be Thanks for your input! hopefully you can hear better here. I installed db killers in this video, the sound at 0:37 is the one I'm concerned about!

Doesn't sound a lot wrong with it from where I'm sitting.

Mind you, the motor isn't going to last too well if you carry on with all that hard accelerating wheelie stuff 13 seconds after rolling out the driveway on a cold engine!

Or was it warmed up fully?

Yeh I just dropped of a mate, it was on operational temps, did a 50km+ drive before that :P Thanks tho for reminding me. How long would you recommend driving before going nuts? I just cant help myself sometimes hitting the gas on speedbumps hahaha The sound tho at 6:40 :O the high pitch noise, I can't justify that sound :c

Thank the lord for that, you had me worried for a minute!

I have a temperature gauge fitted to mine (handy for this very reason) and generally speaking, under normal riding conditions with 15-25C ambient, it takes 10 minutes to get up to temperature and for the thermostat open.
