Blame whoever you want but we are all to blame.

That being said, both my Harley's have 50 state street legal mufflers on them.

So you're saying that we're all to blame.

.... except you?

Nope I'm to blame as well. My chopper was one of the loudest bikes I ever even rode near on the road. 117" cam'ed motor with 2" open pipes facing straight out. They were insane stupid loud. I can't access my youtube vids from work but here's one of the vids of the chopper I have on my PB account. The youtube ones are posted here somewhere.


EDIT: Here's the thread with the other vids.

That being said I went the other way with my new bikes. Honestly, anybody here can attest, my Harley is not loud. Here's a video of Uma on her Harley. I don't have one of my Ultra.

Yup, you're to blame all by yourself

My Buell's Jardine sounds like Armageddon. Which is annoying as hell 75 pct of the time. On track accellerating up and down in the hi rpm band...wood city.

Yea I got old too... I had a D&D pipes on all of my bikes until '01 GSXR1k (Yosh)...too loud. Then I went with the M4 Gp pipe on this bike, again loud. So I went to the long (quieter) Akropovic and I'm much happier. My neighbors probably are too. There is such a thing as too damn loud.
