Yeah, I thought loud pipes were cool when I was 20.... I now notice that the bikes I encounter while riding (those with unmuffled pipes) are totally offensive and disturbing! Don't riders realize that the small minority of rude riders will eventually cause legislation to get passed that will restrict our ability to ride- based solely on the actions of some insecure babies who want the world to notice them and their loud scooters? They make me laugh, they make me cringe, but I wish they'd just find another way to show their manhood.
I've been riding for 40 years and the last 15 years of Harley popularity has really dragged our sport into the toilet....

Loud pipes save lives! Quite pipes save ear drums!
"Sport"? "Toilet"?
I am not accustomed to hearing these terms in reference to my "lifestyle".

Here is my take on this:
Loud pipes do not suck, it is the rider who sucks. There is not reason to rev their engine at the light to attract everyone attention for the whole duration of the light. They often rev more when they see some chicks crossing the street. The sad part is they think it is fun and cute.
How can others take us seriously, when some of us are so inconsiderate and obnoxious. Respect goes a long way, let's share.
Off the soap box
