When I used to ride a MotoGuzzi, I had straight pipes on the thing. I
didn't like the noise at all, but the things make the people in their
cars who never bother to look before changing lanes etc, to wake up.
Straight pipes will help you to keep from getting creamed. We used to
have a saying " straight pipes save lives".
as a footnote, I've known a few guys get tickets for them.....but NEVER
heard of anyone getting a ticket from a motorcycle cop for them.

SOUND OFF
A least it is quiet unlike in the US where too many like the loud bikes.
Un like the Europeans, we suffer more from the "look at me syndrome"
Nothing negative opinion wise about riding motorcycles. I think they are
neat, always have. But when they are louder than the space shuttle you
are
now infringing on my freedom. I asked a local cop about the noise as one
drove by, he put it best when he said "simple things amuse simple minds"
In my day if you did not have a muffler (or it was loud) regardless of
vehicle you got a ticket period end of story. I cannot pin it down but
maybe with the prevailing Nascar/Country music/Rap/It is acceptable to be
a
Red neck/ crush kill destroy, mentality in this country in the last 20
years it has become a free for all with the vehicle noise. I would
ticket
everyone of these vehicles just like I deserve and have gotten tickets
when
my muffler has gone bad. Tom
