(Hopefully) The Best Recording of the Ninja 650 Exhaust Sound

I've seen a few videos showcasing the exhaust sound of the ninja, however it seems like all of them were recorded with the on-board microphone on their cameras. I thought it might be useful to have one recorded with a dedicated mictophone, so here you go:



-Audio recorded with a Blue Yeti USB microphone (5' directly behind motorcycle, gain set to lowest value, Windows sound level at 75%)
-Video recorded with a Canon powershot camera

I tried to include various RPM levels and such, and whether anyone else will actually benefit from this, the more the merrier for videos like these! (At least in my head) Also, I know there's a puffy noise sometimes at the higher RPM levels, but I have no idea why. The mic was nowhere near in the direction of the exhaust hole! Oh well. :)

Another reason I wanted to do this is because I will be buying an aftermarket exhaust at some point here, so I'm planning on recording that once installed in the exact same way to get an accurate representation of the difference between the two.
