Heck we don't even have a helmet law. 2007 America Pacific Blue and New England White, AI removed, Freak Kit, Bubs long slash cut, 160 mains.

Most of us with louder pipes on keep a stock pair somewhere and stick them on for the test. Or find a nice garage that is ok with slightly louder notes from the back end.... Troutman, I've taken the back baffle out of my stock pipe and that is louder. It's also ok for the mot. Gina 03 America - Pretty stock - except the TBS wheel... 06 America - missing, presumed in bits. With it's TBS wheel... 09 America - It's very blue....
