Plainfield Illinois | I'm amazed at how people get tweaked by this subject. I wonder if anyone really believes that loud pipes save lives. It''s just a comment like "you have to die from something" made by smokers. I like loud pipes but what I think is loud others wouldn't. I think my S1L1's got loud(er) when I added the VM1's.
When I play hearts on the net, I often Q the whiner; it's more fun that hitting low man. This is an amusing thread. Geez, don't let yourself get your bell rung so easily. You guys are a HOOT!

Reno County, KS | There is ONE good thing about street sweeper pipes without baffles. They help me profile the rider. My life has become so much less complicated once I accepted profiling. LOL |

Edmonton AB, Canada | if loud pipes really saved lives they would face forward.
I just like the feel and sound when I crack the throttle! |

LaPorte,Tx. | This is just a short funny story about loud pipes. A very good friend of mine has a Big Dog Mastiff with a S&S 117 cu in motor with this special carbarator. Anyway it is very loud as it has a two into one huge ground pounder pipe on it. Two times that I've been around it with my back to the bike when he started it it back fired when it didn't crank. I thought I was going to have a heart attack...so loud pipes may take lives in that respect.
Anyway this thing will shoot fire out of the pipes about two feet at times. So one day he is sitting at a light with this thing. Picture this 6'5" 63 year old Texan with huge handle bar mustash sitting on this thing with one of the beannie helmets all smiles. A car pulls up on his right side and he was sitting next to this little boy peering out the back window with eyes wide open. He looks over to the boy as the boy rolls down the window, Mike was thinking the boy was going to say something like "Nice Bike" or whatever. With them looking eye to eye...the little boy yells "Hey mister...your pants are on fire"! Mike yelled back, "What" and the boy pointed down and sure enough his jeans were on fire at the bottom of the leg, burnt a 2" hole in his jeans. That blip of the throttle while at the stop sign shot out the fire.  |
