TIME TO MAKE SOME NOISE!

[CanAmMURPH]

Mount a cannon on the front in case needed in emergency.

LOL!!!! Don't give me any ideas. LOL!!!!

I had the 2 bro's single can on my 2008 GS and after a couple of years it needed repacking. Instead I invested in the Spyder1Attitude which never needs repacking and like it much better than the 2bro's. Spyder1Attitude can be found on the home page if interested and they have Utube video.

I'm going to take a look at the Spyder1Attitude ones. Thanks.

To be honest loud pipes won't help, And if you realy want to be honest most people put on loud pipes for the look at me, ''Ain't i cool feel'' People don't hear Fire trucks with screaming sirens, Until they look up in their mirrors and see the flashing lights. Lane position and awareness is you best defence against the drifters.
Been riding Bikes for 45+ years and i can say i it's been years since i last used my horn.
Just my thoughts , Yours might differ.?

You make a good point about not being able to hear an apparatus. I really don't like the loudness, but I'm getting fed up with the Magoos. Thanks for the tip that will save my life.

[CanAmMURPH]

Is yellow also the fastest color on snow? I'm thinking your answer will be NO!

LOL!!

[CanAmMURPH]

Safety is deninately not enhanced with volumn, lights, horn and defensive driving do work. If you want more power or like a loud bike then do it but I really wish the police would enforce the noise laws. Nothing worse than hearing some unmuffled bike scream by you house at 2:00 in the A.M lol.

I worry about being the neighbors' headache with that rolling thunder sound. LOL

Love the rumble and roar of the Two Brothers pipe. It may however make riding less safe as some drivers may be startled by it and make a knee jerk driving move. I guess you can't win in all ways with anything.

When I hear rumbling pipes roar by at 2AM it gives me sweet dreams about riding....

Personally I like rumbling. I don't want my ears to bleed, but really don't like the sewing machine sound of stock either...

Have dual Two Bros and don't mind repacking them, it's not that hard. Love the rumble.

Haven't seen any startled knee jerk reaction unless I want to get their attention...VROOM VROOM...

If you get loud pipes and don't want to piss of the neighbors, use the lawnmower law. Power on at 9 am, off by 9 pm.

Sewing machine? I have to use that one. LOL

Yep! a sewing machine with the stock exhaust. Especially around the 23 second mark in the vid....lol

The time has come for me to replace my factory pipes with louder pipes. I am fed up with these Mr. Magoo drivers drifting in my lane. Calling names is a waste of time. My friends have been telling me to up the ante. Its time. Any suggestions? Preferably slip on pipes. I have the '09 RS.

I hear that the tailgunner exhaust is really loud and looks good.

[boborgera]

A great way to make noise would be to use a baseball card and a clothespin, Worked for me when i was ten.
Just don't use a Mickey Mantle Rookie card.

I've seen clowns pull in front of dump trucks. I just ordered lights for the wheels and I will get an air horn and hope for the best. I really didn't want a loud bike. I try to consider my neighbors and people in general. I'll try the aforementioned. Thanks a lot.

There is no sure defense against the worst of the idiots out there. Situational awareness and defensive riding techniques , as well as periodic practice of evasive maneuvers, can save your bacon, though.

I do understand your frustration. If you are really serious about finding alternative safety measure to be noticed, consider a hi-vis jacket and hi-vis helmet. Those are the only things statistically proven to increase rider safety and reduce accidents. Those pieces are chosen because the move continually when you ride, in different directions than the bike motion...attracting attention.

[spydermyke990]

I've had to give people the air horn many times while driving the semi, and some even had their windows open, and still it didn't do any good, people are just getting dumber and dumber with those "cages".

[bhfromme]

Stick a sable air horn on the spyder that will wake um up and have them pay attention.

Hey Harry. Where can I get info on that air horn?

Didn't Bob post a video clip a few weeks back of a moped with something akin to a truck or boat horn?

Gotta agree - although the justification for these seems to be "loud pipes save lives" the safety instructors will tell you all it does is "scares Granny" and draws attention after the fact. I like the throaty sound of the two brothers but harbor no illusion that there is any safety factor implied. Besides, if it REALLY was better I would think that the insurance industry would be offering a discount for their addition (or at least dream that they would).

Here I thought I was catching up to Bob on posts with only a 19,000 difference and I see he has advanced 200 more from my keeping pace

LOL!!! I remember those days. You told your age. I guess I did too. LOL!!

It won't get better with more inventions of technology. I will have to do the best. I buried my friend two years ago because of these people who claim that motorcycles are dangerous. It's not us, it's them. I have been driving a car in addition for decades. I have never been a danger to motorcycles. Take care.

That's exactly what they say! That's why I'm so fed up. You did all that you could. D@mn!!

I really appreciate all of the support and suggestions in reference to my frustration. Thanks again and "Rubber Side Down."

It was actually a horn off of a diesel locomotive...

Being the Devils Advocate, [again]
