I really do. It's the best of both worlds. It sounds great, but not to loud to the rider, but it isn't that loud off the bike. It's weird. You'd think that it would be really loud from the bystander point of view, but it isn't.

They're hard to come by right now, though. I'm surprised someone doesn't gut one and replicate it for sale. They'd have make a mint.

I loved the sound of my Special Ops around town, but I took it off because it was too loud for days of touring.

Mine is louder on the bike than to passer by's. OTB's Bimota is insanely loud. You can hear him coming from a mile away...but much quieter on the bike. Mine is opposite. Not loud from down the road but loud on the bike.
