Default more induction noise - how?

I rode a GSXR 750 today (2011) and it had a lovely growling induction noise. Must admit I rather liked it! Is there anyy way that I can increase the induction noise on the S?

Thanks!

BMC race filter will give you a bit more induction noise...

After they did the 600 mile service you can hear those intakes sucking in the air.

You would need a high flow filter such as the BMC to take advantage of this mod. It can be a type of ram air setup but would depend on how one does the mod. Ive only done it on 2 bikes that ive owned (neither an S1000RR) but both fuel injected & both breathed considerably better at higher RPMs with a noticeable power increase at all RPM ranges! Your mileage may vary but it basically involves increasing airflow into the box by increasing the size of the inlet in one way or another! Not a bad mod for a glorified air pump!

Gives the bike a "bark" of sorts at idle & when accelerating. You can clearly "hear" the air getting sucked into the box.
