louder

[NiceGuysFinishLast]

And galahs.. go ahead and get that Busa... you know you want to be able to wheelie in every gear, at any speed. 

Why, do the chicks dig this behaviour? 

Hahaha.. I dunno, but if I ever figure out what chicks dig, I'll let you know. I have a favorite country song called "Chicks Dig It" by Chris Cagle, but uhh.. it doesn't say anything about Hayabusas.

And 3imo, I'm not being abusive. Read my post, nowhere did I call anyone names, or say anything insulting. Just clarifying as to why he won't get a favorable response from a lot of people here about subjects that are A: Pointless (to many, not to all) and B: Ancient history, covered ad nauseaum, easy to find through a search. The reason I say many people will find it pointless is that most people here are about performance tuning. If he'd said he was looking to improve his 1/4 mile, people would have recommended things like a 15 tooth sprocket, slip on exhaust, lunchbox, and rejet. Possibly ignition advance, dropping some weight, etc. All he asked about was making his bike louder, which has been covered an amazing number of time in my short stint here at GSTwins.com.

As for all sport bikers being squids, simply not true. Pablo rides a 600RR.. he's nowhere NEAR being a squid. Pablo takes his bike to the track, and pushes his bike, and himself to the limits (and sometimes beyond, just ask his collarbone  ) I'm going to get a GS soon. I intend to ride within my limits, ATGATT, do any stunting on back roads, etc.

So how about... we uhh.. quit flaming each other, and go ride something. I'm insanely jealous of those of you who can ride. I'm looking at picking up a GS in the next few weeks, if all goes well. Yay!

I'm not really fussed with what anyone does to their bike / car / house / self.

Their choice in my opinion.


Its a truthfull fact though that some people just like a louder exhaust note for what ever reason.

That would be the number 1 reason most "ricers" and "muscle car" owners buy sports exhausts for their cars.
Sure there's the performance increase that comes along with it, but you can have a good flowing exhaust that is quiet. These arn't as popular among this market.

I also guess there could be a saftey advantage in having a louder exhaust especially when driving next to someone in their blind spot.

Either way you choose, each to their own I say.

Don't get me wrong, I like a nice exhaust note. Like I said, I just sold my Mustang, that had a flowmaster on it.. Nothing quite like that burble burble burble you get when you get on the gas. My friend drives a '78 Vette that we've rebuilt from the block up, and the sound it makes is AMAZING (Yay for Florida not having emissions, so we can run what basically amounts to straight pipes!  )

Like I said, the bike I'm looking at has a slipon. I have no problem with him wanting a louder bike. Some people here will see him as squidly. As for safety, I guess I can agree with louder = good, to an extent. From what I read on here though, the best is to just clutch it in and rev her to 9K or so.. that'll REALLY get a cager's attention when they're about to cream you.

Ok, I'm done with this thread, off to real stuff, like the girls on bikes thread!

I personnall y don't like loud pipes.  they are annoying.

but I cannot stand people judging an individual for liking that aspect of biking.    not only judging but namecalling and putting them down.

theres no place for that shaZam!. especially on the internet. where its just shameful.

these are the assholes who if you met them face to face and asked them about louder pipes they would smile to you face and act all nice.
But get them on a computer where they can be annon, and the true hateful little selfish bigot comes out.

So I aim to judge the judgmental and spit in their faces. no not righteous. but it feels good anyway.  an eye for an eye.

F*ck 'em

You, my friend, have a serious chip on your shoulder.

You've posted like 10 times in this thread, and they're all super sarcastic about the people here and their opinions. You're worked up about the squid thing, the curveunit thing, and a seemingly endless list of other topics.

If we suck so bad, leave the forum. I wouldn't suggest anyone just leave this out of nowhere, but you have been posting nonstop about this shaZam! and how everyone here is judgemental and superior. Why stay? These people have guided me through the steps of my first ride to being able to maintain my own bike to being the rider that I am today. They're good people. If our ideas don't mesh with yours, go checkout another forum.

Accepted, lets get the f%$k out of here and go grab a beer.

[Onlypastrana199]

so getting back on track....


My bike is loud..really loud...but I put a cbr can on it. I think what alot of people were trying to say was that a gs is never going to sound like a harley but you can definitely make it louder   It just takes a bit more work or $$ than other bikes. The can i got used off ebay for like $60 my dad made the flange and welded it. Here's the link for my thread on mine, including a sound clip.

Ya know Dave, I'm gonna have to take you up on that sometime. Also, do you still do speaker application stuff? I may still be looking for some small speakers again.. not sure..

[3imo]

I have an F1 cobra can, used and abused. in ok shape, though.  I think I have a link to what it sounds like too. i'll see.

here is the link

here is the story behind that bike if your interested. its a long read. http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=24409.0

[3imo]

I plan on reusing that can.  but might let it go for the right price.
It is a bit scratched though, as you can see the bike was thrashed.

I'll take pics if your interested.

I think we're too far away to throw a beer to one another, so we'll have to do what 3imo said and buy one for each other and drink it ourselves. I have a 40 in the fridge with your name on it, and one with 3imo's name. You guys are getting boozed tonight!

As for the speakers, here is our site:

PM me if you're interested in any of these; my price is far below the MSRP.

LAst time I had a 40oz  I passed the f**k out.    but then again I get wozzy off two longnecks.

I don't drink.   not since... the time ...i went camping...have ya'll met jack?
