Yup .... an SI. My wife's grocery shopper.

Handles nice around corners but it's gutless. I keep wondering if I should drop a turbo in it.

I wonder if she'd like a trunkful of woofers ...... na, there would be no place to put the groceries.

... .... Hey Doc, if yer wife put the milk and eggs by the subwoofers, you could have scrambled eggs for supper and a MILKSHAKE for dessert when she got home from the grocery store!
But your gas milage could suffer with that little Honda engine trying to run the big aftermarket-alternator you need to run those big 10,000 watt subwoofer amplifiers.

A well spoken member of a local bike club might be able to de-fuse this before it gains momemtum. The last thing we need is hard ass noise ordinances popping up all over the country.[/quote]

Kayakguy, I think you said it the best. Do you want the job?

We don't get a lot of problems here about our pipes.
I have V&H 2 into 1 on mine and they make people notice me.
I have had them cut me off on both bikes even with that, imagine
what would have happened if I didn't have them? (I would rather not
think about it)
Plus the Chief of police here rides and he has a really loud bike.
HD of course but we get along great with him and have ridden many times
together. I don't always like to ride with him, as speed is not a problem on
that day, he doesn't have a speed limit. Just as fast as you can go.
