What are they testing for... real or silicone?

They really are loud. But Keith, I think all you need here is a little discipline.
Heard from Dale... he's baffled too (no pun intended).

Do they come apart to allow for re-packing? If so, you should have a look inside. They may have forgotten to pack your ones or only packed very lightly. If they were closing down they may have got less diligent on quality control. Get some more muffler fibreglass or SS wool from a muffler shop and pack more in. Note: don't use domestic fibreglass or SS wool - they aren't designed to handle the temperatures.

Yeah, they come apart and yes... I will check into what's potentially missing and/or needing attention.

"Neighbors" as in Alberta or Washington?  Having ridened behind you, there was never a doubt about when you were slowing down.

Never know to be too quiet! Dale usually packs them as tight as what will fit, can't imagine him slacking on that. I most often where ear plugs not just because of the exhaust but because the wind noise is too loud. Didn't realize that until I was listening to a radio that was too loud and when I got to speed I couldn't hear it any more...until I stopped and it was too loud again...mmmmm?
