• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

TIME TO MAKE SOME NOISE!

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.
 
Unfortunately..!!

Have not dealt with pipes on spyders. I personally have a hindel and like it. What you will hear most is Two Brothers. U-tube has many with sound you could start there and then see the results here..good luck... :thumbup:
 
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.
 
They'll still shift into your lane. Loud pipes put the noise behind you, not up front where you want it. There are far better ways to address this problem.
 
I ran everything from stock to Yoshimura to 2Bros to HMF on my RS. I really like the sound of the HMF best. Scotty is right, they will still merge on you. Air horns, extra lights, bright colors seem to help.....a little
I am still having trouble with them seeing a huge Goldwing, which is very quiet.

:agree: You've got to use your head while riding; not your pipes. :thumbup:

Although I am in favor of the loudest possible horn that can be deployed when necessary! ;)

They might even pull double-duty and also act as a JATO unit... :yikes:
 
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.?
 
Although I run the HMF and love a loud pipe, I have to agree with the other posters about being visable is much more important.


I not only have the fastest color Spyder, I also have the safest color as well. It's well known that yellow stands out more than any other color and thats why schools all have Yellow buses. I can see where a grey and darker Spyders would certainly blend in with the road.
 
spx15 sounds grate and less money than all the rest,no need to repack theres nothing in there,and i love the looks.:yikes: loud yes so i put a socket in the end of the pipe it helped and also gave me a lot of extra tq.:2thumbs:

The first line of defense when riding, is what's between your ears. Not how loud your exhaust is.

If you want to get a new sound, go for it!

Have a set of loud pipes myself...
 
Look at Super Trapp. All stainless steel, completely rebuildable, and tunable by adding discs. Only $204 plus shipping from Summit Racing. Can adjust the power range to suit your own preference. My wife and I each have one and love it.
