Of course they do. They probably have a car with a 10,000 watt stereo too.

Wah wah wah. Crybabies.

I love being obnoxiously loud, it lets my wife know it's time to grab me a cold beer and put dinner on the table.

So, by "Loud, shitty"... you mean the bike sounds like a huge fart when it goes down the road?...

Supertrapp Supermegs. Seem to be really quiet and produce good numbers (20 disc - comp end cap).

Funny... See a lot of youtube clips - demonstrating sound - with what appears to be Supermegs with no disc or end caps. Wonder why they would configure them as such... Can't say they sounded very good IMO.

Also, wonder what kind of performance hit they're taking by doing such... Total waste of an otherwise good pipe?

That's exactly what I run now.
It's definitely louder than a stock exhaust, but nowhere near a pair of open duels (drag pipes) and without disks and the comp end cap, performance SUCKS.
