I've seen pictures green bike hits 149.5 db but RTA shows huge peak at 2kHz.
How did they measure it? Pink noise?

Doubtful, but if u find out what shop built it u will get warm. If it's a DIY, it's Area 51 shix.

Measured on a TermLab with music playing. Not a tone or a burp. Each person got to choose their own song.

Where can I find the info on what equipment puts you in what class? What’s pro stock. I’m still learning all this and don’t want to look foolish when I’m ready to throw my hat in the ring. If Jason’s bike is a lightweight I’m in trouble. Lol

Pairadice Cycles in Pittsburg built the bike. Rob Farnsworth is an incredible builder.

From My understanding they rate you on a scale of 1-5 on mids,highs,bass and over all sound. Add them up high score wins.

I ain’t scared!! Lol!! My bike is no where near as competitive of some of those bikes!! That said. I had a great time watching those guys. I’ll get to that level one of these days. Just takes time and money! Got a big kick out of watching my forum brothers juice and baby boy in a Grudge match. Juice took him out pretty damn quick!! Lol!! That said. Baby boy got second in the pro stock category which is no easy task at that level. All and all both bikes sound pretty damn good but for now hail to King Juice!! Congrats Brother!! Shout out to my boy Alex for tuning Jason’s Bike. By far Best bike I’ve ever heard!! No one is gonna take him out anytime soon!!
