That's another good iPhone portrait mode fail though isn't it. Patch of gravel and tyres behind the bike still in focus when they should be blurred. The actual OOF areas are pretty decent though.

Good answer. I do like this GP Megaphone, but suspect it'll bust noise limits on track days.

Research required - maybe adding in the dB killer will allow this quite extraordinarily expensive purchase!

I found some youtube videos, it's not too horrendous if you keep the cat in the system. Obvs the full titanium system is somewhat different... and about £2k all in :p

Hell no. Why would I want one of those things?

It's also laughable that you think tracks here have dB limits
Which reminds me - I've got a track day tomorrow on the BMW which I'm approaching quite hesitantly. I got very disheartened at watching my mates advance way faster than me and I've beat myself up over it a bit.
So tomorrow I'm in the novice class and am going to try and relearn what I've been taught and just try and string it all together a bit better. Wish me luck.

As said elsewhere, I love the GT Air and really want one but the ones I’ve tried on don’t feel very comfortable. They seem to pinch my crown. I don’t know if it would bed in after a while.
