Loud pipes saves lives

RIP your hearing.
 Quoting: Gimme Some Truth


The "loud pipes save lives" is a crock of shit myth that has already been disproved through basic physics and accident data. It's simply a BS excuse for assholes to justify their noise pollution.

Funny thing is, I wonder if they would be as understanding if their neighbor had a garage band play loud music during times they were trying to sleep.

So you obviously have zero empirical evidence to support your statement. You'd speak differently after your first time riding home during rush hour.

They're not just grown men. They're mostly old men. And they're not being replaced by young men.

That's why Harley sales and stocks are plummeting.

Too bad actually. It's an iconic brand and an American institution.

The "loud pipes save lives" metric is impossible to calculate because no one can say just how many "texters" or morning makeup appliers, or loud music listeners, it alerted
that may have otherwise cut off a motorcyclist.

And in my personal experience I know for a fact it's saved me from a collision with deer more that once.

I actually had a deer crossing my path that did what I can only describe as almost a backflip when I cracked my throttle coming around a curve (clutch pulled) that I'd have otherwise have hit.

Deer in general in my neck of the woods get scared from the roads with the sound of a loud bike coming. And that might not always be saving a life, but it sure saves a lot of trips to the hospital and a lot of rehab.

You probably never will understand.
I don't ride a motorcycle, but I do have a 51 year old muscle car convertible that I've owned now 40 years and it's a special kind of deliverance from regular mundane life.

You probably don't understand the connection that develops between man and machines.

Are you male or female?

You probably think of vehicles the same as you do about small kitchen appliances.

They are everywhere. Obnoxiously loud, rude and think that they own the roads.

A Harley Davidson sounds like a continuous loop of a nasty queef. The butt holes that ride them think they are "bad ass". Ignorant man children who have not gotten a clue. Fuck those noisy piles of garbage!

IMO, and from my experience.. if you have the skills, you dont need the loud pipes.

i rode in rush hour for years, got hit twice and didnt crash. once on a dualsport, once on a supermoto.

loud pipes have their place and thats at the race track. I have a HD and i also dislike the loud ones disturbing the peace. it makes me angry also sometimes. (fkn clown pirate posers!)

the best sounding bike ive ever had was an aprilia SVX550 uncorked (@ the race track) itsa V-Twin MX bike basically but it sounds more like a V8 than a HD

greatest sounding moto ive ever had!

FWIW this is the greatest sounding car: [link to www.youtube.com (secure)]

Far from making a judgement here, to pose this;

Would they ride the same machine, all the same speed and motion as was, but if it were silent?

There's plenty of evidence. As simple google search would've taken less time than it did to type your rebuttal.

The loud sound projects from the rear motorcycle. Most motorcycle accidents happen in front of the bike, such as a car pulling out in front of the oncoming bike. The calculations of the motorcycle's forward speed, along with the rear projection of the cycles' sound, results in the bike's sound not even being registered by the driver pulling out out until the motorcycle is right there at them. By then it's too late. The car is already pulled out in front of the oncoming bike.

Wearing a bright orange suit with flashing lights would actually do more to your life because drivers are using their visuals, not so much their hearing.

Bullshit.

More than half of motorcycle accidents are SINGLE vehicle accidents, meaning they wrecked all by them selves.

25% are when the motorcycle is AT FAULT.

15% are Motorcycle on motorcycle accidents, with the remaining percent left up to cars/trucks hitting bikes.
