“Many motorcyclists intentionally modify the exhaust as a safety precaution. The loud noise informs cars if their presence, since most cars do not see motorcycles.”

I always pull out in front of motorcycles with loud pipes.

It informs them that like a yappy little dog against a real dog, mass trumps the sound and fury of such a small thing.

You should see the looks they give you when they almost have to set their bikes on the pavement to avoid being splattered.

I don’t know why motorcycle drivers can’t just be more tolerant of my large and lumbering vehicle instead of giving me “looks” and waving their middle finger at me all the time.

So, you're intentionally trying to get someone get hurt? Nice. You're some piece of work.

If you ever pull out in front of me, you had better hope you kill me.

If you really do that...you're a real head case. Loud pipes make you want to possibly hurt or kill people????

Maybe I missed the sarcasm here...Was it?
