I agree, there's always an azzhat in the group who wants attention so bad he needs to rev his aftermarket loud azz shid in crowded places
Multiply that by every few bikes in a busy place with good year round weather and it gets old quick. I would want loud vehicles banned too, and I wouldn't care how many wheels they had, or if it was their exhausts, stereo's etc making the noise. You've got to respect other peoples rights too 
If folks kept the noise down it would never come to this, but since they can't, it does come to this

WOw.. this is crazy.. Not saying making noise with your vehicles is right or wrong, but it's been part of the whole mod scene since there was a mod scene.. Look at old say 60's or whenever people wanted to make a street legal racer.
Ban.. hell no.. Knowing a time and place a must. I've heard loud exhaust and thought "That sounds nice" and then the cheap garbage that makes me can't wait 'til they are away from me.
Listen to most exotics.. Step on the gas and they are loud. Hell, even my boss's Masi is and it's stock. Yes there are some pipes that are just ridiculous. But don't be so unreasonable far left or right that you take from others fun. They too though need to know screaming down the street at 2a at 8k rpm is well... (Oh.. My bad.. that's where that spike strip. How'd it get in the middle of the street.. my bad)
I don't mind pausing a convo, i.e. if I'm at a patio setting eating dinner and someone lights it up.. I'll pause and check them out to see if it was a nice set up of fail. lol Next to getting in to corners or taking them sideways in my 240, exhaust tones are my next pure enjoyment in automobiles and bikes.

Didn't the California Senate just pass a motorcycle noise law ?

Times have changed since the 60's Houston. The population has exploded....california especially. There's just no room for folks to get away with the occasional blast on the throttle, because its not occasional anymore, its constant, and folks are sick of it. Thats why the governor of california just signed a bill into law outlawing aftermarket exhausts on bikes. If you live in california you'd better check into it, because as of this morning I believe, things for you guys have just changed radically I hope you guys kept your stock exhausts around.....

it was a city ordinance enforcing EPA regulation that went into effect in 06 (i think it was 06) and
the COC in colorado has all but stopped the cops in thier tracks with the help of a good lawyer. i think Wade Eldridge is his name. as far as i know, every single ticket they issued for motorycycle noise was beaten in court. i will have to do a check but i think the city even had to pay restitution to everyone they issued a ticket to. so if you get a noise ticket in CO. get in contact with the COC, they can help.
i contacted the AMA, and am awaiting a call back. i have started to run the phone tree for the NCOM legislative taskforce. i have a BOLT members card from cali. that i am looking for(i have a big stack of cards from all over the country). and i am shure the MMA wil be more than intrested in this BS.
will keep you posted. i will not be happy til we make this right!:tantrum:
Do it!
It will be good to see you again Gunny. We will break some bread and talk about how awesome we are!
