That's it, straight pipes and dark side for me.

Is there anything else I could [use] that is really stupid and makes everybody think I'm an asshat? I'm all about that, apparently.

Wait, tassles and fringe for me, and an MIA flag.

What?!..no "Get Back!" whips?....sorry but without those it's only a half hearted attempt to be an asshat.

How about riding on plugged tires?

Riding on a plugged tire makes one an asshat?   That's Mr Asshat to you sir!    :o     ;)

 ;D I hit all the buttons. I use Rotella oil, I ride on plugged tires, I don't wear ATGATT, in fact on hot summer days I'll wear a half helmet and a t-shirt. I had straight pipes on my Valk for about a month (but couldn't stand the loss of power not to mention the noise). Call me SIR Asshat.

And your choice of oils and oil filters.  Do you wear chaps?  That's another good one.

Wait a minute.  I wear chaps when it is cold and I am not an asshat...

+1, also don't like crowds..

Amen! My wife and I took the Concours up to Mt. Rushmore last Summer a few days AFTER Sturgis. Absolutely bliss. We saw pictures from the week before and would not have wanted to be there.

My simple response to you who made fun of being heard for safety. Lawmakers see that cars NEED to be heard for safety. So should bikes. So hah!

This is so pedestrians can hear electric vehicles, not so other cars and houses thousands of feet away can.  It doesn't need to be loud, just not completely silent.  Pedestrians will have no trouble hearing any stock I.C.E. motorcycle.
