Hi I am cbr3fl. I have an 06 R3 classic. My only interest is riding my bike otherwise i'm working which isn't that much fun 55y.o. It's a nice bike but sounds like a garbage disposal when in gear.This is a clutch problem need some ideas.

I'm going to disagree....rather a sewing machine.
You can do a few things to change the sound but first get use to the bike's power.

It will never sound like a V twin. Remember it's a 4 cylinder car engine with one cylinder cut off.

You can get TOR's or D&D slip on pipes. You can change out the complete exhaust system depends on your wallet. What ever you do have it re-tuned afterwards, then start over and get use to the power.

Welcome from Northern Michigan!!!

I actually do not mimd the ound of my srock exhaust, especially on long trips.

I remember when I put on some English Custom exhausts on my America it had the sound Triumph should have. A nice rumble, but not obnoxious. Too bad they do not make something similiar for the R3.

Not sure I would like the TORS for long hauls. Besides yoi change to TORS and remap, there goes the mileage....

I also don't mind the exhaust, the quieter the better... With the Rocket I don't have to mask little power with a loud exhaust, you "feel" the power.

Perhaps if you are near another member, they could meet you and see if your bike's sounds are unusual. Where do you hail from?

Welcome! :bch:
Be a little more descriptive about your noise and you'll get some good advice here.
