Hey All,
I love love love my 1971 144, but my wife hates going on long drives in it because it is so loud, and we have to yell everything. Any tips to reducing road noise? I'm sure the Mikuni carbs aren't helping, but a lot of it is just the road noise itself (it has overdrive, so 70mph is 3500 rpm). I noticed that it is missing all of the window scrapers - would that help reduce noise?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
