I'm here, and so is my bike
Finally finished the move, and I now have my bike here in MTL... I'll need to do some work to make it inspectable and legal (it's too damn loud, and I need better turn signals and a second mirror...) but I'm back on two wheels.

Re: I'm here, and so is my bike
I've been commuting with it, which means I lug it around in 5th gear at 50kmh so the SQP doesn't fine me for my exhaust. I'm anxious to get out onto the backroads so I can open it up again.

Had the same thoughts when I got mine with Termis but thought "Hey, a freakin' straight pipe Harley makes WAYYY much more sounds than mine" so whip that throttle man >  just don't hang out in the downtown area as there are a few (especially one, officer Martel) that are having fun with aftermarket-pipe-equipped bike owners.
See this link for more info on what to do if there is any problems (if you can read French) : http://www.m4e.com/forum/viewtopic.p...er=asc&start=0 ..... It also mentions Martel's name
Cheers and ride safe

Re: I'm here, and so is my bike
Two problems:
1. I live in the middle of downtown.
2. My bike is (almost) as loud as a straight pipe Harley. Baffles? What are baffles?

Re: I'm here, and so is my bike

I may be interested... It is either that or spend another 300$ on a quieter Hindle pipe.
