I thought my V&H system was loud, but I cannot hear it for the open pipes used on the busses here. CJ

I got a micron slip on race can. Make a bit of noise once the revs are up, but its not to bad at low rpm. I prefer it like that. I dont want it attracting too much attention going through town.

Same here, idle is ok. But if I get on it, everyone within 1/2 a mile or so knows about it. Guess I'll have to choose my opportunities carefully :lol:

The other day a friend and I were out riding (it was right after I got the bugs all worked out), we were on a country road and I decided to put it into the wind a little bit. Got it up to about 125mph or so when I realized that the road I was on was right beside the interstate highway in an area known for speed traps. D'OH! :oops:

Guess a radar detector is going to have to be my next investment :lol:
