What?!?!?!?

All kidding aside, noisy pipes are a bane on our existence. It would not surprise me to find that folks who run noisy pipes year after year, have hearing loss.
I like the stock pipes.

Yea, I like quiet - so much so that I wear ear plugs on every ride. So, having loud pipes would be pretty pointless for me

. Erm, not to mention, who wants loud pipes on an enduro - so I can scare the willies out of the squirrels? Oh get out of my way turtle, here I come.....!

i would have too agree some of those bike are damn loud. well i guess i have a damn loud pipe, but i bought the pipe off ebay and didn't reallize it would be so loud. but then again i get more horse power more gas millage with a less retrictive pipe. well i should say straight pipe as D&D make a very high flow pipe. but then again i'm sure i'll "pee" off my neighbor, but not as much as my other neighbor with the awesome custom chopper, wow loud.

You could remember to be gentle on your throttle until after you get out of your neighbourhood.

Your neighbours will appreciate it.

i don't like them insanely loud, but i don't like them whisper quiet either. i like a nice rumble and a decent roar when you're getting on it. that being said, i'm going to be replacing my "procreating" insanely loud pipes for something a little more civilized. i don't really NEED to be setting car alarms off as i go

dr_bar's last bike was like that. Car alarms going off. Now his bike is nice and quiet.

The young kids down the street think it's funny when I hammer it going past their house. I aim to please.

I watched a few of your videos. Your counter steering video is probably the best explanation yet. Seeing it is worth the thousand words everyone seems to need to explain a quite simple technique.

you could do without the profanity though.
