GoPro Hero 3+ with external mic taped to the rear number plate. Camera is on the passenger roll hoop with the standard gopro roll bar mount. Tried a few positions , but this seems best till I find a new one ! Hard to get a balance between both exhausts. Easy to get too much of one and it sounds like a single cylinder machine  Glad you got the GoPro sorted in the end. Great to hear the mods. I have a roll bar mount but never used it. The suction cup proved more versatile although I did initially use a safety line in case it let go. Go out and enjoy making the deeper potato potato noises with the new setup...

Re potato potato - hehe
And a fast tickover is spud spud spud ? Using similar GoPro setup, mic on number plate etc. I compared to my standard exhaust. The noticeable difference in note and volume appears to be when you opened up. Definately more sporty. Of course the GoPro almost certainly has automatic gain control so will lower the recorded level at high volumes so it will always be subjective. So I'm guessing you are pleased with the result and quite rightly. My neighbour buys mental horses and trains then to be less mental. If I meet her In the lane I have to switch the M3W off or we all die. More noise isn't an option for me.

Yes very pleased thanks. Its a different car, more responsive with more grunt.
All round I am pleased I went for it.
Morgan are supposed to be organizing a rolling road test to check the ECU settings are what they should be and we are getting the best out of it , looking forward to that.
There are lots of race horse training stables round my way.
I do the same , on a narrow lane I will pull over and switch off and let them pass.
I dont fancy being kicked in the face by a frightened horse, also
it gets you brownie points when you meet them in the pub later. ( the riders , not the horses )

I don't know about exhaust noise - it sounds more like machine gun fire! Great noises and love the camera!

yes....actually i pushed it 5m out of the garage. put the mohair cover on and let it get soaked wet from the pouring rain. after 15 min i stepped out in the rain and soaped it. then again 15min waiting in the rain and pushing it back in the garage. then dried all the water drops with a microfiber cloth. done :-))
tomorrow, i join a group of bikers (B.A.C.A. Bikers Against Child Abuse switzerland). a friend of mine is a member and he invited me for the anual 100 mile ride. 30 harleys and one m3w...sounds nice and the weather should be sunny.

Met up with MO63WLR, MDH and Colin (not yet on TM) today at Brooklands for thier spring classic breakfast meet. The sight of 4 M3Ws arriving in formation went down well and we were parked in the padock normally reserved for older classics Great run there and back with a strage round yellow thing in the sky for a change

Headed down to Jacks Hill Cafe (Towcester) yesterday for the Sidecar, Trike & 3 Wheeler meet. Can't say that I enjoy being on the M1 in the 3 wheeler but once we joined the A5 it was great. Those Romans knew a thing or two about road building...  Some interesting machines and interesting people!   Ours was the only 3 wheeler in attendance which did have the unintended advantage of being awarded a trophy   Our first experience of the biking community and I must say that they were extremely warm, welcoming & friendly. The M3W attracted much attention, but its reputation is obviously well known with most people just asking about what problems I'd encountered...
