About your LOUD PIPES
Went to Daytona this week. Had a blast. Was sitting downtown watching bikes go by . These three police came up and stood where we were at. A lot of people came by with really loud pipes and people were holding their ears. The police didn't like it either. One looked at me and said, it wont be long before loud pipes will be a think of the past. Flarida is already in the works to outlaw loud pipes. We gave the police department a call the next morning. In Daytona alone their were 2,123 phone calls about excessive noise. Some of the condos arn't going to allow loud pipes a room.
Many may enjoy loud pipes but I fear its comming to an end because weve abused our rights.
Let me give you an example. We were sitting at a red light and the guy ahead of us had such loud pipes till it hurt my ears and i have rianharts. I pulled beside him at the next red light and told him his pipes almost blew out my ears and he said F*CK U . Thats why the law will be passed.

RE: About your LOUD PIPES
I've been on and around motorcycles all my life. I can honestly say I've never had a motorcycle (on the street) "hurt" my ears. You gotta be kidding me!!! I have my baffles in my v&h on the softail and straight custom pipes on the chopper. My neighbor saysthe chopper sounds like a John Force burnout when I leave if I get down on it. He Loves It!!

RE: About your LOUD PIPES
It is a case of"one bad apple ruining the whole bunch."
I live in the daytona area...and it is not the LOUD pipes thing.....it
is the riders that REV their engines to draw attention to themselves.
Bottom line.
Basically, Daytona Beach ordinance prohibits: "any noise creating device for the
purpose of drawing attention to the source of the noise."
This can apply to an auto, motorcycle.....or numerous things.
So........if you just ride you will be fine. But sit and REV your engine for no reason
and a cop feels frisky. Risk-a-ticket.
I have lived here over ten years......not so quietly and I have never gotten a ticket
for noise. REV your engines. Take of from a stop light like you are
beating the time trial at a drag strip. You came here for a weekend and got a ticket?
Too bad, so sad.
Did you notice the signs that said "Please ride quietly."?
Daytona Beach police are not 'out' to get anyone......and only get tough
when 'locals' have had enough.
This Biketoberfest wasn't too bad, as far as I have heard. I do know of quite a
few jerks that got away with loud pipes. Which will make it worse for the other 'apples'.

And yes, Daytona likes the money, but geez, if I was not a biker, and lived on a main drag and couldn't sleep for two weeks out of the year cause of the racket,I just might bitch too.
Nothing sounds sweeter than an old shovel with drag pipesat WOT, but it is noise to everyone else.
