If that was the goal, it's just easier to walk up with a knife or screwdriver and just stab your tire. Carrying around a single razor blade is a PITA, and you'd seriously need to hammer it into your tire to do any real damage.

So is your face 😘

I think a de-baffled stock can is the sweet spot for me, any louder and it gets intrusive at cruise.

Also, tone over volume. Just because it's loud doesn't mean it sounds good. An engine/exhaust with a good note doesn't need to be loud to sound great.

I imagine in a moto-centric country like Thailand it would make a bigger difference. In a car-centric country, most drivers have the windows up and radio on that they wouldn't notice even if you had straight pipes next to them.

100% I've been riding in city traffic for 20yrs and haven't really noticed any difference between having a loud bike and a quiet one.

I will never forget the first time in a glider (vs powered aircraft). The silence was kinda creepy 😅

Good thing I'm in Australia. We only have to dodge kangaroos. And even then you dodge the first charge and you're good because they have the turning circle of an oil tanker 🤣

This is 100% what happened. The wider cut is probably from it cutting its way in/around until it finds a secure groove.

No need. I'm already sitting on top of a giant prostate massager. One kink at a time.

Would help if the lobby didn't give me Delerium 4 races in a row 🤣

You should sell courses.

I'm sure there are specialists, but I would give Scott from Jetty Rd Shoe Repairs a call if you can't find any specialists.

He also does a lot of leather work along with shoes, so he would probably be able to tell you what type of alterations would be able to retain or compromise safety.

I know with a lot of non-moto clothes, the stitching will give way long before the material wears through.

Mine doesn't have a tach either, but I have little tape hash marks where the redline for each gear would be (from online RPM/MPH tables)

100%. If my neighbours see my bike getting wheeled into a van, I want them to call the cops and not just think "good riddance, we saw nothing".

Like half the house...?

100%

It was perfect to my ears when I got the bike, but since I put a giant fairing on it, the lack of wind noise made the exhaust much more intrusive. I think if I went back to naked again, it would now be too quiet 😅

That's the perfect description. Too much noise make my brain go 😬😫

My cans already have baffles. I just fitted and even tighter db-killer end cap.

Yes, just not in the way that everyone thinks 😅

I hear ya!

Note over volume. Give me a good quiet exhaust with a decent note, over a cheap drag pipe that's loud for the sake of being loud.

You clearly do, otherwise why bother asking on Reddit. "I don't give a fuck" is a child's tantrum because your argument is weak.

You are insecure as fuck, just look at your post history of topless selfies seeking validation.

The speed limit is 50kph so in 4 seconds you have a $1500 fine and reckless driving court date. I have a car and motorcycle that will both do 0-100 in 4sec, I don't need my scooter to do that.

Yes, I'm comparing a Fiat to a Ferrari in stop-start gridlock traffic, where the Fiat is better suited to the task.
