If I took the muffler off my car I would immediately get a ticket Yet Harley owners remove their mufflers the moment they get the bike home. You've all been shocked by them one time or another, you know sunday brunch in the back yard when some monkey comes roaring up the street. Then 2 seconds later his buttee breaks the sound barrier. Are you still influenced by the Hells Angels stories you heard about as a kid. Do you think these idiots will beat you up or do the urine initiation on you and your family. NO they are just your regular morons that think NOISE relates to POWER. think about it then ask youself WHY you put up with some 50 year old idiot disturbing your peace and quiet starting in the spring and lasting through the summer. ( Monkeys don't ride in the rain) Stand up and fight like I have. Here's what you do. Tell your local police to send a unit with a db meter to the nearest freeway exit where there is a harley dealership in your town. Saturday is the best day.
Answer
The first two options I went with when I bought my Fat Boy was "Screamin Eagle" Pipes and a air horn. The only reason behind this is SAFETY. Safety first ALWAYS! If I come up from behind you, you're going to know it and not cut me off!
NO Harley rider would ever "remove their mufflers." Before you go shootn your mouth off, make sure you know what you are taking about. AND a second thing...I've been an avid Harley rider since I was 16. I am now 26 (YES, A FEMALE) with TWO masters degrees who also understands the value of a dollar. You should watch what you are saying when you throw words around like moron, idiot and monkey. Would you kiss you momma with that mouth? KARMA is a bitch...don't fuck with something you know NOTHING about, asshole
Oh, by the way, the "Monkey" rides in the rain. The Monkey rides when its cold out. KISS MY ASS...or should I say PIPES!

Do the police laugh at you when you say "Loud Pipes save Lives" as they right you out a few tickets?
Q. I have a bike also and its quiet. But I do have respect for my neighbors,babys sleeping, and the elderly. But I dont feel the need to show off and get attention by sounding like a boeing 747 at a stop light racking up my pipes. mechanical problem? no your just like a lil kid wanting attention. Its very childish and rude! Real bikers like me know we have to keep it quiet and have respect so one day our kids can ride. You being loud is killing the sport! very simple...keep in mind these are public roads not your personal race track. My point did you buy it to ride? or to listen to? Me I like to ride thats why i buy bikes. I have no machoism to prove with straight pipes by hurting peoples ears and my own. Can you imagine what they say when you go past? um huh I though so... Lets keep the noise at the track where its not illegal...Some places have baned bikes 'this is what happens' when you think your all joe cool with your extra thin steal cheapy exhaust. Dont wreck it for the rest of us.
Answer
as a biker, i can understand to a point about inattentive cagers drifting over into their lane, but it's a 2 way street, and accidents usually require 2 participants.
it's been shown over and over that: cars are much better sound insulated than they used to be, drivers tend to be doing more things to distract themselves; cell phones(#1 reason). and the biggest thing that goes against the 'loud pipes save lives' argument is, the pipes face the wrong way: not facing traffic.
another thing about straight pipes, and it's been proven consistently on the dynometer: straight pipes hurt torque, power and performance in the range of typical street riding: 3500 rpm's and lower. the straight pipes dont even wake the motor up until the rpm's are in the 4000 and up range. their actually intended for full throttle applications like racing, and just how often do regular street riders even break the 4000 rpm 'barrier'? i dont even go over 3500 rpm at 65, and my bike is all stock.
i've been hearing that alot of places are cracking down hard on bikes with modified exhaust. close to where i live, there's a few towns that strictly enforces the noise ordanances, and 1 bro that rides got tagged a couple yrs ago for having straight pipes. i hear that daytona beach is going to be hardcore on too loud of pipes soon enough.
only thing that will keep a bike and a cage from tangling is if the rider pays attention and actually uses his eyes. seems that there's alot of riders that put too much faith in loud pipes. loud pipes isnt gonna make the bike swerve, and their not going to put the brakes on either. i dont rely on loud pipes, and i dont rely on 'dumb luck'...eventually, 'luck' runs out.
no rider should be on the road if they cant keep their head on a swivel, be able to accurately track 'targets' in a 360 degree arc, and accept the fact that they have to keep 1 step ahead of the cagers to survive the ride.
LOUD PIPES=LOSE RIGHTS
