I don't agree MC"s with loud pipes being stopped, but I have heard Bikes with unbaffled pipes open them up having no care where they are.
This can start problems for bikers. People sometimes start disliking all bikers with average pipes & it can start with a few careless ones.
DaNaBob said the police was cracking down on loud pipes.
Also he said he was given a warning!!.

Some Towns are looking at the noise motorcycles make, So I keep it down when in town.
Plus I'll say the law is not cracking the whip at all on noise here.....

Have you tried the packing from V&H, as U didn't say how many miles U have put on them but I redone my Rush after 14k and they needed it, and it helped.
I have read that V&H's Q-baffles need redone every year....
wut i was trying to say is if you get a ticket take it to court and ask wut desible you wur at......the cop dont have prof unless they have some kinda noise reading..........in my state its 50 desibles from 50 ft how the hell do they prove that......but that wuz before i knew he was from canada and they cant change the pipes so he should keep the stock ones on and leave it alone

well just went through Fredericksburg Texas where they hate motorcycles. They have a city ordinance that if a citizen thinks your too loud and points to your bike the cop will write you a ticket and you have to pay a fine. no defense and no questions.

I know right, how frustrating, did you buzz them or something? Did you blow their ears out by accident? Are you sleeping with his wife? I just can't see why they are giving you such a hard time.
