how are the neighbours?
I've been riding for 3 years with 'loud' pipes. ( V&H Straightshots wth. quiet baffles)
Although my pipes are not particularly loud, I thought I'd ask my neighbours if the sound of my bike ever bothered them.
One neighbour said; "I've never noticed."
My other neighbour said; "I've heard it a couple of times...sounds really good."
Lucky me.
How 'bout you? Ever get any 'feedback' from your neighbours?

My pipes are stock, yes I said it, and the neighbors don't complain. I do however roll it into the street when I start it to be courteous as the neighbor behind my house works nights. My last neighbor complained to me once but she was old and a busy body who complained about everything and I did roll it into the street then. She even complained about me strating my vehicle with the remote start saying it was loud to her.

no complaints here yet, but I just put my Rush slip-ons on Monday and haven't had a chance to start it up first thing in the morning yet due to the weather. We'll see what happens after tomorrow morning
