exhaust noise in germany - amarko5 - 30-06-2007 As my cans sound rather fruity I was thinking of swapping them out for the standard cans ! just don't want too attract the attention of too many police. what do you think i should do, keep the noise on or swap for sedate subtle sound ? erdferkel you may be best to comment ? exhaust noise in germany - Guest - 30-06-2007 hello, if the cans are ok in the country where your bike is plated, there won't be trouble by the german police. the "STVZO" the rules for sound, lights and everything appies only for german plated bikes. klaus58 has a french plate, and the bike is very loud, and has some more modfications the "tüv" might not approve of, but as it has a french plate.... brakes, lights and such must be working of course, but if the sound restrictions in the country of origin of the bike are not as restrictive as in germany it should be ok. i'll ask a german lawyer in the german forum as well. you might want to learn to pronounce "ich verstehe kein deutsch" but some of the force even speak english HTH glückauf ralf exhaust noise in germany - duibhceK - 30-06-2007 <!--quoteo(post=45951:date=Sat 30th Jun 2007, 09:19 PM:name=erdferkel)-->QUOTE(erdferkel @ Sat 30th Jun 2007, 09:19 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->hello, if the cans are ok in the country where your bike is plated, there won't be trouble by the german police. the "STVZO" the rules for sound, lights and everything appies only for german plated bikes. klaus58 has a french plate, and the bike is very loud, and has some more modfications the "tüv" might not approve of, but as it has a french plate.... brakes, lights and such must be working of course, but if the sound restrictions in the country of origin of the bike are not as restrictive as in germany it should be ok.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd--> hmm, I have heard from Belgian bikers that have had to leave their bike at the side of the road in the Eifel region to be picked up with a trailer...
