Linked below is a well reasoned look at loud pipes. I personally believe loud is better than quiet. I want drivers to hear me. That said, I ride bikes with stock pipes. One sounds like a moped the other is appropriately loud. As the article writer says bikes don't need to shatter windows. Importantly he also says that there simply isn't the research to whether or not loud pipes save lives or not & the people that would do this kind of work have more important issues. The biggest take away from the article is that there is no evidence showing whether or not loud pipes save lives.

So in response to Dave Barry There is no evidence that 'modified' exhausts don't save lives. None. Nada. Zilch.
