Default Re: Exhaust noise

Noisy bikes annoy me even as a biker, they just get us all a bad name. My BIL has pretty much straight through pipes on his Yamaha 1300 V twin Cruiser and they make your eyeballs shake, even his cruiser mates told him he had gone too far and they cost him £££'s. Don't know if the dealer kept the OEM cans or supplied them with the bike but all his mates telling him to get something quieter on it as he is embarrassing them (and he will get pulled over sooner rather than later) - don't know how such loud pipes can get through an MOT as in a confined space they would really punish your ears.
