About 75MPH in the first vid.. only had a 1/4 mile run-up to the camera..Sound quality is pretty poor,she actually sounds better & louder than that I'm told
Standard 38's up-jetted..She'll run a lot better when I get the 34mm VM roundslides back on, no matter how I try with these CV's theyre still too weak..

Great videos. The sound of your bike is music to my ears.
Its time you English folk quit that silly sword play.

Suns been out all this week (60'F)so theres bikes all round our back roads, that was a VMax went past just then as I turned the camera on (not seen one since last year!)
NorwegianXS - theres too many UK firms selling these to list here but if you type 'silencers' on the UK Ebay site you will find them new for under £100 the pair - mine only cost £65 new !
(google earth Wing or Wingrave & you'll see the general area where I filmed,spot the castle!)

I just have to find the right kind that will clear the kickstarter pedal.

No problem, buy 'teardrop' silencers for Triumph Bonneville/Trophy 1963-'71(they're the ones I have in the vid) or BSA A10 or A65 silencers, they look & fit just as good .
If you want I can find you a pair
Look at Ebay item number 120390042322 £85 the pair , same as mine !
