Trust me... you're fine... no sportbike is loud like my bike.
Kinda the same reason why I don't worry about my vertical plate when there are sportbikes with plates in front of the rear tire.

Yesterday I saw a stock Big Dog just like yours except it was red or whatever the fuck color that is. It was loud just with the stock pipes on there, I cant even begin the think how loud your bike is.

I'm pretty sure I could damage somebody's ears.... especially with the pipes aiming basically out and up like they do.

My friend has a Jardine RT1 on his 1000rr and its loud as shit. Choppers are still much louder though.

They just want to look badass for the ladies who like men in uniform.
Cops in general don't wear proper gear and aren't the best riders...

Not that I'm trying to have a "who's bigger" type debate...

Meh, who gives a shit about loudness. It's all about tone and firing order that gives it the distinct howl.

im actually against general loudness 24/7-reminds me of civics with coffee can muffs and nothing else, makin all kinds of lame noise.
that being said, the 675 with shark pipes make my boner the biggest- perfect sound for a streetbike
my bike sounds mean thru the gears, but at idle you can smell the race gas, hear the intake suckin, and it just sounds nasty, crackling and shit, sensory overload...nice novelty, but gets annoying pretty quick, and setting off all the car alarms is really annoyin.
most new sportbikes at idle are barely audible-that i like.
my bike is sorta like gman's-u hear me whether or not i want you to, and if i decide i wana be heard and twist on it alil, you are damn well gonna pay some fuckin attention to me lol
sometimes i just wana creep around at 2am, enjoy the moonlight off the ocean, latenight vajay-jay appt, whatever. where im at now, the second that thing comes to life, 4 alarms go off. not exactly stealth:panic:

That's where my Beemer comes out. Even with the baffle out of the Remus exhaust, it barely purrs.
I finally heard what my KTM with dual Leo Vince sound like the other day. Jesus, it's loud! There was another guy who drove by on his KTM 990 Adv with the factory accessory Akra cans and it sounded very distinctive. A low rumble that can be heard from far away. The Leo Vinces are distinctive but they aren't rumbling at all. :sorry: They sound like thumpers on steroid - BRAPPPPPPPPP!!!:rockout:
