    It's a 150 for crying out loud!

    It's like having a message "Don't run! It's noise pollution!"


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    So, where do you work?
    I have an ass-gutted 250 and a neighbour with a totally debaffled Harley.
    Some people just can't seem to comprehend that they do not have the right to be unoffended in their lives.

    Just have a big BBQ party. Gather all Norf Welly Massif Crew and it's done.

    Your neighbour will think you are part of a biking gang and hide.

    Officious little git!!
    You do have a current Wof? Issued with the pipe as it is?
    If so, then why get twisted by this prat? You are legally allowed up to 100dB (95 at least). You'd manage that if you ran the header pipe only...
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Bleh, if it is serious I am not worried. Bike is all legal and stock standard. Bar the 250 carb and missing air box. Its all induction noise!

    My lawnmower has more cc's and is probably louder - Officious little git - they tend to breed in offices. Burn them all.

    I would like to advise you that your bike is too loud. I would like to suggest to you the following; either replace your new pipe with the standard pipe or replace the baffles in your pipe.

    Please be aware that not all people are motorcycle enthusiasts and although I understand that you are not deliberately "disturbing the peace" this is noise pollution.

    Should you not remedy this situation in a timely fashion I shall have no choice but to advise the authorities.

    *name changed to protect identity.

    The bike that I commute on is an FXR150. It has the original pipe on it and all its baffles are intact. I do hope this person was taking the piss. I shall find out on Monday I guess!!
    If you know who this nob is pin a note to his front door that says " Dear arsewipe I thank you for you feedback re my motorcycles exhaust pipe but you are wrong so go fuck yourself "

    Buy some airhorns and go hard, "sir"...... (That bit actually cracked me up...)
    I would imagine a good fart will make a noise in a basement carpark and that would be more than just noise pollution. Put valve grinding paste on their wiper blades.

    How is it noise pollution exactly? Surely you're only riding the bike for a few minutes in an area that Knucklehead says you're polluting with noise?
    My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.
