Wood choppers are loud for a reason. I like 'em!

No, I really don't like loud machines. If so many cops weren't going through midlife crisis and riding cruisers with straight pipes themselves, they would enforce the law. I got pulled over half a dozen times in the late 70s for my enduro being too loud and it's not half as loud as the "Look at me, ain't I sump'n" machines on the road now. I'm not one for annoying people around me with my toys. When I'm carvin' with my saws, or practice shooting, I wait until I know it's late enough in the morning so as I don't disturb them.

I had headers on my last Scout II, it was horrible in the morning. It had dual glass packs and the jets in the carb were too large. I took those stupid fuggin' things off and had the local exhaust whiz put a 3" dynomax on it. Sounded just right and quit beatin' on my neighbor's windows when I went to work.

My big Can-Am with it's v-twin is really quiet. No need to run around the mountains making all the noise I can. It runs off the animals and makes me deafer than I already am (which is pretty darned deaf enough)

One thing I don't understand about the hogs out there, can't they idle? Is there a reason a chimp in his crotchless pants and chromed cap has to sit at a light and work the throttle the whole time he's waiting?

Straight pipes actually waste power unless you're near redline all the time, Harleys don't do THAT well so what's the point if it's not narcissistic behavior?

Yeah, I'm yankin' your chain on this one. I figure there's one or two laws that you wouldn't like me breaking too.

Poor poor pitiful me right?!?
