Do you think loud exhausts should be outlawed.

I've just changed my bikes silencers back to original and it's much quieter and now a pleasure to ride.
I can hear my engine for the first time.

These loud noisy bikes are a pain and spoil the peace and quite of the neighbourhood.

are these extra loud pipes not against the law? is there not a limit?
Most of these is are just  noise pollution.

Should we as responsible bikers not be lobbing to have the law enforced to quieten the bikes and thus the image of guys that ride bike?

Bikes are designed with the back pressure created by the exhaust as part of the design and then these irresponsible biker dudes just go and change them. a good silencer system is an indication of quality and class.

Noise is an indication of immaturity and the misconception that the bike sounds bigger / kwaaier / stronger / faster/ etc. when it's noisy

Little children should not get scared when we ride past.
