I don't know about that.  The stock carbs and god-awful Chinese shocks lead me to believe that it's a stock motor.  So, not much cam or compression, which in turn means it won't be that loud.

This is coming from someone who rides a very loud CB750.  Very, very loud.
Take care,
David

I've been using this one as an inspiration for my bike.  It was on CL here in Indiana a few months ago.

Not sure what it is, I just stumbled across it when looking for parts, the engine could well be Buell with the belt drive but the frame is twin shock.

Looks like the Ryca Suzuki LS 650 'Sausage'

It is, although Suzuki now call the LS an S40 (40 cu. in.)

The fairing is okay but the rear of the tank makes no sense whatsoever.

I wouldn't want to have to keep the wheels clean on this with all those spokes.
