You should know by now not to try and argue with jetz.
Its like argueing with your wife.
No good will ever come out of it. :P

You would like I would learn eventually in both instances, I guess I am stubborn.  :)

Although, my bike is particularly loud, it has an r304 silencer, and i need to get it repacked, but no matter how hard I try, I can not get it apart to repack it, I have the repacking material, but, can't get it open. Anyone have any ideas?

On my nephews CR80 I actually had to take a thin screw driver and tap it in all the way around between the cone and the silencer body to separate the nose cone for removal. I couldn't get it lose any other way. Then once I dug the old packing out, cleaned the core and inside the body, repacked it, I took a ball peen hammer and tapped the silencer body back into shape before I installed the screws. I honestly don't think that was repacked in many years to be that stuck and nasty.

I thought this was a picture thread.. :-X
I think quiet is better, the less people that know your there the better. And look at it this way, is all that noise really worth the 1-2 horse power? maybe for racing but for woods or dunes riding this is a must because of idiots who can't believe that there is noise coming from the riding area they just moved next to.

Pictures are difficult.  First you have to take them, then you have to get them off the camera and finally you have to upload. 
Modest beginings start with a single blow of a horn, man.
