February 26, 201412 yr Hello i had a Beta evo 4T 300 - year 2011 which is now from my brother. I was wondering ifsome one could tell my if the new montesa 260 sounds not so loud like the old 4rt.The Beta 4T sounds like a sewing-machine and that's nice for the neighbours. Maybe the new Montesa is quiet as well. Greathings Luc
February 26, 201412 yr New Monts are just like the old ones - you can wind the neighbours up if you wanted with it! The betas are very quiet!
February 26, 201412 yr I like the sound as well as he is.If you want to have it more quietly, an additional silencer cap from KTP would be the solution: http://trialparts-shop.de/produkt/zusatz-schalldaempfer-honda4rt/ The cap is delivered with 2 connection flaps, 2 fixing bolts, drilling template, assembly instructions and rivet nuts. The engine power should not be affected. Edited February 26, 201412 yr by rollox
February 26, 201412 yr Author Hello guys, Thanks for the answers. I never saw de additional silencer cap from KTP. Does dis thingmake a great diffecence in power delivery? For use at home in the garden power is notthe bigg thing....a quit bike is nessecary for my. Greathings Luc
February 27, 201412 yr The KTP Silencer is a simply solution to make the 4 RT more quiet. It has two sieves, who are braking the bang. German Munster
March 1, 201412 yr Looks identical to the Jitsie DB killer i have on my '07 4RT. But with a new mounting bracket. Search db killer in this forum and on the web for more info. I swear by mine. Don't notice any power drop off but do notice the quieter footprint. If it means i can ride more then im all for it.

Because I lost the nut that keeps the mesh in place, I made one myself from aluminium mesh that I got from a DIY shop. A lot cheaper than the £ 60 (or about €50 I paid for mine) they ask for the Jitsie db killer: http://www.apico.co.uk/decibel-killer-montesa-red-07-09.html Edited March 1, 201412 yr by guys

So I had the idea to make it more quiet, KTP (a friend of me) contructed and produces it, Jitsie also sold it. It can't be wrong, the new RCV1000R has a similar exhaust.... German Munster
