Best Pipe?
#21
Haha ya i deffinitly want my bike louder than stock because it sounds cool and its safer when other people can hear you, but unfortunatly the cops can be pretty **** about the noise. being from a town of about 2500, they know just about everything about you and where to find you. but i know what you mean by getting the sound to reflect off the glass/concrete downtown!

Hey..I have an RS-3 haha. The previous owner put a lame dent in the can though -_- As for tone I like it but I'd like something a little bit louder. As for looks..can't say it's the best looking pipe there. But whatever.. I don't have the money for another one. Here's a pretty crappy vid of my RS-3 if you want lol.

My bike came with a chrome type M4 slip on, the sound was nice, but not as nice as the 2bros slip on my pops 1000RR.
Since I don't like chrome, I sanded it, cut about 4 inches from the canister, and painted black. The sound is not loud at all (the 2bros on the 1000rr is actually louder, than the modified M4), and the black paint looks so much better than the chrome finish.
Now if I had the money, a high mount would be nice

I don't see why people.......(skoobydoobie) insist on complaining when someone asks what the best piece of equipment is. For instance, Akropovic is probably a better made pipe than something like a D&D. I didnt look into it but Im sure it gains more horsepower, fits better, and is made of higher quailty materials, therefore being a better pipe. I can understand if I asked, what pipe sounds the best?, then that would be a matter of opinion. However I should have refrased the question to "Which is the best quality pipe?" AND louder can be safer. If a driver does not check their blind spot and cant hear anyone there, they may change lanes, cutting the biker off. If the driver can hear the biker there, he will most likely look where the motorcycle is.

"What's the best" threads are fun and informative, plus it lets folks brag a little about what they have.
I enjoy them, especially oil threads, but I'm sick that way. I'll back you on that STi*F4i=FUNi^2.
Personally, I think this logic was developed by Harley Davidson riders to justify putting on annoyingly loud
straight pipes on their cruisers, thereby inflating their macho man egos even more. Good riders will always
anticipate that a car will cut them off and will behave accordingly; ie. not riding in blind spots and
always having an escape.
