GS5 vs. Harley...Now, the Story can be Told!!!

[bubba zanetti]

Why all you peeps be hatin on loud pipes.

They didnt have healthcare back then, and part of the greatness of the framers is their ability to see that things might change in the future. how that relates to healthcare, they made it to the constitution could be ammended.

Dear God, is this what has become of our education system?

Thumbing through my copy of the Constitution I find that the framers wrote a document with ONE purpose...to limit the power of the government. A government take over of health care is the furthest idea from the Framers original intent.

Re:  Rights.  Not all rights are guaranteed in the Constitution of the United States such as the right to not be tortured during war (Geneva Conventions).  Rights in general are Philosophical constructs that I don't think most motorcyclists even know exist and certainly don't appreciate why they matter - though I'm sure they appreciate having them.  I really like having rights and I don't like them infringed upon... which leads to the whole debate about crime + punishment.  You infringe on the rights of others and you should be punished by losing rights of your own.  

Re: Loud Pipes.  I personally hate loud pipes - but I also hate the midnight racers who rev up to 14k and disrupt the peace.  I don't have a problem with HDs - they are inanimate objects.  I have a problem with the way HD riders act.  I also have a problem with most of the guys who ride 600+cc sport bikes.  They don't act like civilized, rational people, they act like turds or tards.  

Anyway... I use Rotella T 15w-40 oil in my GS  

[XealotX]

Rotella...you mean dead dino juice?

Everyone knows you should only run synthetic oil in a GS. Preferably changed every 200 miles while running 93 octane fuel.

Anxiously awaiting a reply.

[jeremy_nash]

I prefer the 105 octane racing fuel from the dragstrip.  and I use the cheap oil from dollar store, and change it after every ride  with a spark plug gap of 4.5 mm

like if you live is springfeild, and springfeild ran out of flu vaccines, you cant go over to jamestown where they are overstocked, because you live in springfeild. which is just bull.

I wouldn't even worry about that one. Jamestown isn't going to have a surplus. Goldman Sacs is going to have it, and they're not going to let your fingers anywhere near it.

any Harley with loud pipes should be confiscated on the spot and crushed. too bad the cops all have them or want them.

I was at a bike cruise once, it was about 300 harleys, and me and one other kid on sportbikes. At one stop there were a couple local cops, and all they did was stand around talking about how cool the harley's were, giddy little school girl style. The fact that every one of the bikes were illegal couldn't have been farther from their mind. Some of the Harleys the cops ride in town are pretty loud as oh my goodness too.

EDIT: I always wondered why so many people on here said "oh my goodness", I know see it's an automatic forum infringement on my RIGHT to say s-h- shaZam! -t

Which aftermarket exhaust should I buy to make my bike sound like a Harley? Would LED turn signals make it sound better?

no sorry friend, only LED tail lights and underglow make the bike louder. LED turn signals will add about 10% to your low end though. Just wont sound too much differant.

Lets be clear! Don't wish bad things to anyone. But when the little bit of grey matter you have between your ears possesses you to run a straight pipe at a very loud decibel..I think because of the lack of that grey matter your lack of grey matter would be better suited against a tree at high speed for fertilizer. The tree has more right to live then you do and will not produce mentally deficient offspring!

Nothing personal just MHO

Struth, I'd hate to see you get all nasty and personal. Maybe a trip to your local hardware store for a tin of HTFU is in order. So some people run loud pipes on their bikes, get over it, it'll be a cold, cold day in hell before I put a quieter pipe on.

[tt_four]

my GS has a V&H full setup on it, and it's obnoxious. It came on the bike though, so that's what I've got. Next time I get a bike I'm going to try make it quiet, my goal will be honda prius under 5mph quiet.

Last time I checked, the Prius wore a Toyota badge. Good analogy though.

[dohabee]
