There was a time in this country when a Man could ride his loud scoot without a helmet to a bar, go inside and light up a smoke, down 4-5 beers, tell racist jokes, sexually harrass women, get into a scuffle, and ride home without fear of ending up in court. Then Oprah got a TV show. WTF happened to our sacks.
Now, now, consider things from my perspective; change is not always bad.

LOL! Only if you fail to pay your fine for choosing to thumb your nose at any law restricting your enjoyment of those loud-*** pipes.

Visit east tennessee in the warm month's. Sit back and listen to the constant sound of modified exhaust system's on H-D's. Tellico Plains is a good example.

One of the main cruising drags is up against a steep hill line here and I'm less than a 1/4 mile off it so you can add the echo effect , I get to hear every squid and his brother rip those thunderheaders & other loud as it can get pipes till the wee hours every damn day , sounds like their in my driveway sometime when 4 or more hit it going by . Rice rockets are a problem too , you hear the impact on occasion when somebody blows one of the lights a several blks down . That's an ugly sound I don't like hearing nor wish upon anyone .

God help us bikers complaining about bikes......here is an idea mind your own business about what another biker does or has for equipment on his motorcycle. I dont like people in a movie who chew loud while eating popcorn but they paid to get in also.....
Worse thing that ever happened to bikers is nitwits complaining about what kind of freaking helmet I wear or how high my handlebars are. MYOB.
There are tractor trailer trucks wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy louder than my TH that drive by my house and jet planes that fly over my pad but I live with it... Thers laws on the books already about idiots who drive wreck less or hammer loud musics pipes etc....
