Motorcycle commuter here: You, as a rider, assume the risk and all riders know that. The idiot Harley riders who ride with ‘straight pipes’ claim that “loud pipes save lives,” but they ignore the fact that “two more wheels, a steel cage, and a seat belt does that far better” and choose to be selective with their pontification, and a large percentage of them prefer to ride without helmets. Natural Selection indeed. Dude, just admit that you want loud pipes so you can be an attention w#0re.And this strip is cool nod to BC.

I saw a Dyno test at the Harley factory, I don’t remember if they do crash tests or not…………….

There would be no point – no matter what bike, if you crash at high speed, you die.

They may be fuel-efficient, but I don’t like the lack of safety features.

If you don’t like them, stay off.

What’s the point of Natural Selection? None – It just is.
