Well Brian, all I can say here is that I have 44 years of riding experience myself, AND almost ALL of it on the streets of LOS ANGELES, and almost all of that on motorcycles that had or have exhausts that were/are..lets say on a scale from 1 to 10, with 10 being the loudest..about a 5 or maybe a 6.
And so, you tell me...Do you possibly think that the Ft. Lauderdale/Miami FL area has ANYWHERE NEAR the car traffic that Greater L.A. County has???
(...and I'm still around to tell the tale here TOO, ya know!)
