Maybe it's just loud to you as you aren't used to it? Don't be hasty with the removal

Pics?...pics?... pics?? :stickpoke: (hahaha) Oh yeah, maybe you can come by & do up my rear brake turn signal integration too :P what, less than a 3 hr ride from Calgary...oh wait, think there's snow on Hwy 2 today :?

A classmate of mine had a D&D on his fz1. We did a bunch of dyno runs on it and it was EXTREMELY loud. The automotive classes down the hall said they had to just stop class and wait for our dyno run to be over before they could do anything. :twisted:

Is it "hear it a block away" loud or "hear it echoing off the sides of the mountains when you get on it" loud?

Every D&D I have ever heard is LOUD! I have ridden with people with D&D's and make it a point not to get behind them.
I would be the old, slow guy. Just let me know where you are going and I'll try to get there before you leave.

Sorry guys, but I've found "loud pipes" to be nothing but annoying to guys riding with you and to the general citizen.
I like to hear a nice low rumble, but riding behind a bike with straight pipes or trying to sleep at night and hearing bikes a half mile away keeping you awake, just isn't my cup of tea.
As professed by some, loud piped DO NOT make it safer to ride. They just give the rest of us a bad rep.
