Hi everyone. As you may or may not know I am the one looking after Robs precious .

I am due to rego it in August this year and have to go through the blue slip crap and was wondering is there any quick fixes to quiet the Termi's to get it passed?? 

I have heard of the old steel wool?? Does it work?  The bike will be trailered to the shop so it will only be started up for a sec.

Any help would be much appreciated 

Oh and hey Rob, I painted it yellow 

WHAT, Precious is new Yellow!

As far as I know you won't to worry about noise for a blue slip, it is pretty much the same check as a pink slip (RWC)
I don't think they do any db noise checks and st s gentle 4,000rpm it wouldn't really be that noisy.

google "db killers"

they are popular in Europe.

I don't remember that in the conditions of sale 

  ha ha nah she's still shiny black. 

Thanks Mat, but I'm still concerned as I have to take it to the only car mechanic in the area that does blue slips and he is very strict just trying to cover my ass before the time comes. The bike shop down here doesn't do them

Two Dogs has tried (steel wool) I believe with spectacular results,

I'll leave it to him to explain the finer points of (steel wool) installation

Find a seller of staintune pipes, you can get Db killer through them. I got mine through MCA Liverpool

Thanks Don. I'll give them a bell.

why do you have to go to that car mechanic??

go elsewhere , it will pass easy

Making it quieter?  I don't understand this.

Quieter?
You did say quieter?

LOL

Again though, as far as I know the blue slip is the same inspection as a pink slip and they don't do db sound tests.

Yup,

   They don't even run the bike, and if they do just tell them that's how it came with Gen-u-ine Ducati pipes 

  It really is a check to make sure that the engine and frame numbers are correct.
