My apologies if you are doing your best to keep
the harley bikers from being such a disturbance of the peace. But why keep it a
secret? The periodic 'safe and sober' campaigns probably have a deterrent effect
due to being publicized. Or, by being stopped for loud pipes, do you mean
being stopped and ticked, or stopped and given a friendly admonishment to show a
little restraint? There seems to be no
hesitancy to spend big bucks on "race track use only" engine
modifications and the ability to set off car alarms continues to be the
standard of excellence for motorcycle exhaust systems. If having to actually pay
a fine is out of the question, then if bikers were pulled over after bar
closing for DUI inspection like drivers with defective tail lights and such, the
word would spread and at least late nights would be quieter.

John, you seem to be painting with a broad brush when you
state the police are refusing to address the loud mufflers on cycles and
trucks. Just because you don't read about loud mufflers in the
court convictions doesn't mean offenders aren't being stopped for such
offenses. I have used this reason to stop trucks and cycles many
times and I know other officers have done so too.
