Good- I seriously hate stinkin open pipe hogs and squid bikes. The only purpose is a statement of total disregard for fellow citizens. Asshats.
In the cowboy days they would be strung up to teach em a lesson.
Scumbag biker douch bags.

Does that also include Police Harleys where the EPA certification is covered by the luggage?  The many dual sport bikes that have a heat shield over the stamp or the other other legal bikes where the stamp can not be easily viewed?  How about the bike where an EPA approved system system is no longer available?  I guess off to the crusher with that one [thumbsup]  Then again, the bike with the cored stock system is OK, I guess, since it will have the EPA stamp.

I just hate open pipes w/o any baffles, that wake my up when the bars close and the slow-ass loosers gotta gas it to out run my POS pick-up. Bastards.
Yea- it's a free country- so I should be able to bust a cap in their case at a stop light- right?
The EPA emissions includes noise ratings too.
Cops don't enforce any db rating regs cause I doubt if they are issued a meter, but most likely the offenders are doctors, attorneys and lawmakers- bunch of wanna-be biker posers. They can go to hell with their cheesy no-back pressure fake pipes. I am mad.
Now a Duc is a different story- I love my Quat-D headers. But I still run mufflers- cause I'm not a dickhead starved for attention.
Chumps.
Where the hell is my blood pressure medicine!?

I'd gladly run EPA approved pipes if it would kill some of the noise made by the cruiser set.  I think it needs to be enforced on 4 wheeled vehicles as well.

I have a yosh can on my SV and have the decible killer insert.  It's really a commone sense thing IMHO.  Sprtbikes make just as much racket as hogs.

We just dosged a smog requirement in California because everyone chucks there stock exhaust (and catalytic converter in the process) first chance we get.

My SV came with the yosh can so I left it alone.  My last Ducati had the stock cans until she sold.
Don't expect much and you won't be disappointed.

Whoa, your perception of freedom is COMPLETELY out of line. If freedom means its okay for you to bust a cap in anyones ass, then go live in Afghanistan.

Open pipe  [puke]

I know my ear is damaged after riding next to a bike with open-pipe.  I just detest the guy now every time I see him and ofcourse he thinks it is a funny. My ear drums shook and I swear I had a headache from it.  I start wearing ear-plugs after that.  It just made my already horrible hearing worse. 

I see hearing-aid in my future  :'(

Just an FYI, this isn't about open pipes - it's about any non stock muffler can.  Even if its got dB killers and is quiet, NOPE, try again.

i always thought i liked loud pipes, but I really dont like loud just nice sounding. ie termi without db killers, they are just the right sound and loudness. Now drag pies with out baffels on a HD is just insane. Also its a known fact that loud CLUTCHES save lives!!!!!!!

I couldn't find any stats on how many people have been cited in Denver.

Apparently Albuquerque implemented a similar law several years ago, but repealed it.
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Not on the track, but you'd be laughed off it.
Just if they ride by my house, then I'd have to add potato baffels.

Dear deaf wanna be tom cruise:
I said bust one in their engine case, I'm not a man of violence. Unless one tries to inflict violence on me or my family or my country.
The threshold of pain(causing permanent hearing damage) is 120 db. I don't appreciate it.
If you're into that, maybe you should pick up a Kalashnikov and a harley and go to Afgan.
Damn Weenies.
What?? Whaat?? I can't hear you...
Dig me, I'm a loud-ass biker guy who wears leather.
