Loud pipes have their uses.

    A few laughs tonight.
    Laugh #1
    I was following a riced up nissan skyline with milo tin exhaust watching
    the driver yacking away on his mobile with the window wound down. As he
    stopped about 5 cars away from the red light I split down the middle
    with the clutch in and in first so that the bike was just idling. As I
    passed his window I waited till my pipes were parallel with his window
    and then let him have a blast of staintune enhanced big twin exhaust
    (being undertail they are at ear level to a seated driver. His reaction
    was priceless. He dropped his phone on his lap from the fright!

    Second laugh:
    I was stopped at the lights near southbank on city road when a guy and
    his wife/girlfriend pulled up alongside me in the right lane in a white
    bmw 320i with all the windows down.
    The driver was on the mobile. So again I begin to rev the bike to 4500
    revs making it very noisy. They both looked at me startled and he
    immediatelygot off the phone.
    Third laugh:
    I was waiting to turn right behind a long line of cars.
    The lights turn red and since i hadn't crossed the lines I stopped for
    the next change.
    Guy in a white van behind me starts telling me off becuase I didn't
    SPLIT ahead of all the turning cars and held him up.
    He would have run the red light.

    What is wrong with some people?

    Speaking of laughs (and the milo tin exhaust brigade), I got a great giggle
    yesterday afternoon on my way home from work. There's this guy in a tiny
    rice rocket (looks kinda like an old Barina, but has the obligatory
    pssscht-cht-cht-cht bov, *huge* milo tin exhaust, *huge* very fucking
    stoopid looking chrome rims that don't fit under the guards properly, *huge*
    wing on the back off the roof that looks like half a bathtub and 500kgs of
    lunar lander body kit hanging off it everywhere) that normally comes past my
    place every afternoon at a billion miles/hour with his doof doof crap
    blasting out loud enough for goddam Mars to hear. I spotted him pulled off
    the side of the highway, bonnet up, standing in the passenger doorway with a
    desolate head down demeanour and a whole bunch of absolutely nothing going
    on with the car. *AND* he didn't come past this afternoon :) Looks like
    my prayer of "God I wish that fucking rice boy doof doof shit box fucking
    piece of crap would blow up!!!" every time he comes past has finally paid
    off :)

    I've had one guys so desprate to run the red light they drove over the
    gutter to run it, just missing a car turning on the way through doing a
    hook turn. Was hoping I would meet up with him at the next lights for a
    little discussion but was disapointed. Was a rice man in a Rice clothing
    van

    I've been using the exhaust for a while for cars thats cut me off or don't
    see me but I usually go up to 10,000 rpm. Why stop at 4,500 :) 94 db
    through the window of a car is like a plane landing. Only problem with it
    is 4 wheel drives are tooooo high!!!

    If you have to rev it over 4,500 you dont have enough cubes.

    It's at 94 decibels at 4500 revs.
    Boxers only rev out to 8500 before the limiter cuts in.
    It was plenty loud:)
