I thank you for your positive comments though and will take due notice of them. You no need say anything buddy I understand people here who find the Thai roads dangerous it's a fair call, worse in some places in Thailand than others. Being and advanced motorcycle rider and teaching people in UK, some people can pick up motorbike skills and some can ride but will always be deleted. ????

I thank you for your positive comments though and will take due notice of them. No, the roads are not safe. But, awareness, anticipation, and experience can keep you relatively safe. Get back on, Khastan. My bike is mapped for performance and a free-flowing exhaust is just a part of the equation. Consequently, my pipes are loud -- very loud when I want them to be, like when alerting inattentive drivers that I'm within striking distance. I can "baby-walk" the bike fairly quietly when need be. Another benefit came to me by happenstance one day: I had an aggressive dog rushing at me while turning onto a country lane. I pulled the clutch and revved a few quick ones. The dog stopped in its tracks, fear frozen on its face, turned tail and ran straight back to the safety of its loving master, sitting on the porch, also shaken by the ferocity of my machine. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post VocalNeal Posted October 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2021 (edited) Given that 98.8% of the posters on this thread have never been to a MotoGP or a WSB race meeting they have no idea what loud exhausts really sound like. Ironically it is the Asia Cup bikes that make the most noise. As they go slower and spend more time adjacent to the listener. The quick bikes whiz by and are gone. But it is true that one doesn't even need to go fast to enjoy motorcycles. Edited October 30, 2021 by VocalNeal 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bike is an older bike so they are and were more noisy than reg controled bike today. It is still within decibel level allowed in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they can fit more exhaust cans that make it louder, make it whistle on gear changes, and spew great clouds of black smoke, thereby giving the impression that a jumbo jet just landed on the highway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
