As a matter of fact, friends riding behind me often tell me they can barely hear my bike until I get on it.
For the money the pipe is great...I think I paid $250 to the door for it 6 years ago.
Yup I loooove the sound of mine. It's not obnoxiously loud but definitely loud enough when you get on it, and it has a nice sound to it as well.

I'm almost thinking it's not loud enough now....you all can understand why i'm taking my time and completely investigating before purchasing....one comment about how it's hardly loud @ idle makes me think twice...d n d is to loud and i do like the appearance of the jardine----damn wish i could hear the jardine in person!!!

I had a Jardine low mount with the race core. Not too loud.....let's just say it sounded nice. Then I went to a Hindle hi mount with an oval can. It has a slightly deeper and slightly louder sound than the Jardine at idle and lower revs. At hi rpm, it is loud with a race bike scream. Not as loud as D&D though. I think D&D's sound obnoxious no matter what the RPM. Also, the Hindle hi mount doesn't have the big kink in the mid pipe, so you won't get the HP loss that a Jardine hi mount is known for. Stick with the Jardine or check out the Hindle oval cans. You'll like them and your neighbors won't hate you as long as you don't nail it until you're out of the neighborhood.

Trust me,the pipe is loud enough.....you'll definitely be able to hear it though your helmet...its not as quite as a stocker,believe me. It's just not near as loud as a Dumb & Dumber.
Tell you what....This weekend is the bike show in Chicago.....so I'll be all biked up so to speak.
I'll fire up my bike on Sat. and shoot a video for you so that you can hear it, that way you can decide.
Sound good to you?

VTcbr - I have no issue with the Jardine pipe. It was one of the first mods I made for my 2000 F4. It has a great sound to it. It made such an impression on me that I got a carbon fiber pipe for my 03 600RR and just love it. The pipe is not going to set off alarms like some pipes, but you will ahve no issue hearing it when you crack it open. The nice thing about the pipe is it looks good, sounds good, but is not nearly as expensive as some other pipes.

Honda junkie a clip would be more than excellent but from the clips i've seen in the past it's really hard to tell. See, i like the sound of a 2 bros but dislike the appearance....i kind of wish the jardine had the 2 bros sound to it because i like the appearance of the jardine pipe but collectively you're selling me on a jardine. Who here has heard a devil pipe?

Two Bros hands down. I checkef on youtube and like you said didnt do much justice. Went with the carbon fiber one and I couldnt be happier. Have heard other f4is and didnt sound as great...they had a yoshi, and d and d

It'd loud enough at idle, I think most people are just saying it's not that loud because they're comparing it to the obnoxious pipes. I like the way it sounds idling

IMO d n d are annoying flat out!

Yoshi's aren't loud enough-they're more or less a babay step above the stock pipe.

I haven't personally heard the Jardine that's why i'm reluctant but i do indeed like the looks of it.

I'm not a fan of the 2 bros appearance but the sound of it is appealing.

anymore input would be great---big decision here fellas!!!!
