Thats right if you own a harley you can run those open sausage pipes legally. Obsurd but true!

But judging by the racket that the harleys make compared to my dual sports it sure seems that way!

Oh: F: OFF: Tell Eric Estrada to get a life. The noise your bike makes by purchashing approved parts, by the DOT and other departments is a OK. Parts you buy thru this Website are usually cool. But as in any purchase BUYER beware. I'ts your *** on the line. California sucks by the way.

At risk of being an old thread dredger, any other generalizations on which pipes are quietest?
I'm looking at a DG pipe right now (because frankly, it's the cheapest thing on ebay). I'm seeing them for $160 and for another $25 can throw a silencer insert if needed.
