I am curious how loud the Lafranconi Competiziones. I have Bubs on my '78 Lemans and am curious of the difference in sound.

I have the Competizioni on my 1000S and they are not too loud, never had Bubs but having been around bikes with those mufflers I'd say they are quieter than the Bubs.  The Mistrals on my CX are definitely louder than the Competizioni.

Sorry Dusty, I meant Lafranconi Competiziones are louder and more free flowing. The standard ones are very quiet and I asume restrictive. I actually don't mind a quiet exhaust, just interested in making the bike quicker. I already have a tweaked carbs, a fast cam and a lightened flywheel. Bike is quick and very smooth, but........

I highly recommend the lafranconi Competizione mufflers for your bike.

The elephant in the room of course, is where can you find them?
I haven't seen a pair for sale anywhere for quite some time!
