I have the baffles removed on my vance and hines pipes so im so dam loud now people here me coming from a mile away, its a good thing. I cant be heard though over a loud stereo that is blasting. With my last bike though it was a honda CB550, man people pulled right out in front of me all the time. Within 6 months i had to avoid about 5 serious accidents. People will drive right over the top of you. I had to lock up my brakes multiple times and pull to the side of the road to avoid people coming right into my lane.

but I guess it took them by surprise and they likely thought the skinny long-haired white guy on the Harley is pissed and might be packing....they were right[sm=chairshot.gif]
Right about being pissed, right about packing, or both?? I don't carry any of my guns with me while I'm riding (although I've thought about it) - I'm too afraid that I would want to use it on stupid people like the one who turned in front of eggroll.

Perhaps I'll just figure out a way to mount a baseball bat to my bike or something.

Glad to hear you kept the tire side down and didn't get hurt.

Hey dbleagle, what kind of seat is that? I'm looking for a new seat.

Not to highjack the thread, carry on!

Right about being pissed, right about packing, or both?? .
Both. Pack and ride![sm=violent053.gif] It takes discipline to not shoot every idiot that does something stupid, besides I can't carry enough rounds for all of them, barring the installation of a belt-fed, pintle-mounted automatic weapon.[sm=badbadbad.gif] But,the pistola is there should anyone make a purposeful attempt on my life or those I am obligated to protect.

See this http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/...rce-laws_x.htm

Hint: practice shooting left-handed, you need your right for the throttle!

I'm always watching for cell phone jockies! I'm loud enough to peel paint off the fences, but the housewives with daddy on the cell still pull out in front of me.
