[ST] loud pipes for safety

["Bare" <barenekd@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The thing about loud pipes here in England is they are actually a sfety
thing. Cars usualy don't see you even with your lights on but they often
hear you...

Yeh, the Hardly boys use that for an excuse in the US, too. Totally bogus.
You don't hear the bikes when you're in a cage until they are right beside
you. Then it's too late. Then you get a headache listening to the
potato-potato in front of you because they aren't  fast enough to get away
from you. All you have to do is pay attention to them, don't startle the
bejesus out of them when you get beside them with some noisy POS, and piss
them off. You and the rest of the biking community will be a lot better off.
Remember, the three things you have to remember about surviving motorcycle
riding is like real estates', "Location, Location, Location." It's "Pay
Attention, Pay attention, Pay attention"
