I've heard that theory and it is CRAP! Have you EVER been able to hear one as it is coming up in your blind spot on the highway? I never have. The only time I can hear the damn thing is when they are IN FRONT OF ME! Seems to me that if they want to be heard when coming up from behind, they should direct the noise forward to the ears of the people who might come over on them. Besides, Japanese and European bikes don't make much noise, are they more unsafe than a Hardly? I think not.
Sorry to "bunny" the thread with my rant. I just really really hate those things.

What a crack up...I thought his driving in the News clip was a little..."enthusiastic". I was mainly disappointed that it didn't make his trademark woo woooo noise.

I'd love to pick a morning that he wakes up with a hangover and go "woo wooo" past his house

Rumor has it , OPD tracked down Bubb Rub for Accessive Acceleration, Driving on the wrong side of the road, and running a stop sign. LOL

The Oakland police are now cracking down on these whistle tips. So Bubb Rubb is going to have to get his kicks in new and more exciting ways!

If they start going after loud cars here, I hope they impound a few Hardly Dumbasson motorcycles at the same time! I mean for Pete's sake, you pay $25,000 for a stupid hillbilly bike and you can't spring for a ####ing muffler! Oh wait, that might give them some torque. Can't have that.
Why settle for comfort, performance, and reliability when you can ride a Harley!
Geeze, I hate those damn things!

Jeez are these people serious?? I thought a 4" tip on a Civic was funny enough...Here in NZ this week this police have stared impounding cars for loud exhausts. They are quoting a bulletin put out by our Transport Ministry, but fail to acknowledge that it is not law yet it is still to be passed by our Parliament. Cops here are really gunning for modified cars at the moment with steatlh attacks in cities all over. Last weekend nearly 100 cars were seized and impounded in the North Island.....
