Went to a local bike night at the J&S store in Oakmere, Cheshire it was packed, including this 961 Street, first one I've ever seen in the flesh, and the first other 961 I've seen out in the wild. Sadly didn't meet the owner or hear what it sounds like with those exhausts. I assume they aren't standard, any know who makes them?

That is the Special Edition designed by Henry Cole and his team.

 
Exhaust was made in house at Norton. I believe the Henry Cole was a Racefit silencer, that Norton mimmicked. They don't sound too dissimilar to a Zard 2-1

Didn't hear it, but didnt look to have much baffling, surprised it would pass any noise regs, even the lax UK ones.

It didn't pass anything. They were built on Production with standard Commando foot controls and exhaust system. The Dominator SS foot controls and the 2-1 silencer were fitted at pdi in Service.
