I was sitting on a friend's porch one summer day shooting the breeze and a pack of non-muffled Hardley Davidsons roared by. They were so loud we had to stop talking until they passed. Apparently the cops in Michigan don't care. Now both of my bikes have non-baffled glass packs on them. That little 250 sounds like a 750 a idle. I like it, my neighbors don't. Hell, I used to be woken-up at 5:30 every morning to the song of an unmuffled Yamaha 1000. We just don't care here in Michigan. Don't like my face look at my ass (I'm told there's no difference).
