Currently own a foxbody, Dodge Cummins, and 2 saabs (one with the 6.0 liter LS motor, and an RC51... everyone of them has or had an exhaust... cause I LOVE the sound of all things with a combustion chamber. Plus I think the Suzuki Bandits are great bikes that make good power, and an even better sound. But I still don't understand the constant urge to beat up the rev limiter every half block. Once for the kids, maybe under the bridge cause the acoustics make it that much more enjoyable, but more than that and it starts pissing off the locals and suddenly you have an EPA cracking down on EVERYTHING.
