It is the latter, though every article I’ve seen on the matter obfuscate that as best they can.

That’s a weird way of doing math. Do they actually lose $4,000 on every car, or is it that $359 million spread out over all the cars they sold, comes out to a $4,000 loss on every car.

While sound does travel in all directions, it does not do so evenly. It is most certainly louder in the direction the exhaust pipes point. This is true of cars as well as bikes. You can hear it clearly on a race track while cars are turning the corner. Having been on the highway near loud bikes, they are annoying as…

I can’t speak to this particular photo, but I’ve seen guys on the road with ape hangers, tassles and all the chrome covered accoutrements and the riders always seem to think they’re the coolest shit on the road.

But which way do you camber the wheels for stance? One in each direction?

There is a guy in town named Glen. He and his brother own the largest motorcyle dealership in the region. Glen is 82 years old and rides his trike-converted GoldWing damn near every day. Rain or shine, sun or snow. He put over 300 days on his trike last year. I’ve seen him riding at -20c with the snow blowing, in…

I ride a BMW, my 4 channel stereo goes to 16. but then I also have bluetooth, nav, coffee maker, heated seats, heated grips, heated foot pegs, real cruise control, swedish butt massage, I can carry 600 pounds of luggage, power windshield, etc....

Overflowing with testosterone.

Worse, these people seem to be proud of it.

We had to move because of loud pipes.

It’s never not the Eagles

Depends on whether you’re also wearing the trimmed-batting-helmet-with-a-strap kind of “novelty” helmet. That might end things quicker.

What can it do? It can lift the tire completely off the ground in front on the smallest of ruts because the suspension travel sucks, that’s what it can do. Tell it to get back to the mall parking lot.

The downsides to this system being:

Anti-Ecoboost

Anti-lag systems work by severely retarding spark on overrun and *not* shutting off the injectors, so that the combustion happens mostly on the exhaust stroke and thus in the exhaust port and manifold/header. This keeps the turbine spun up (when combined with a recirculating or blow-off valve on the inlet side that…

Expect a lawsuit from them soon.

Whaaaaat? Functional vents? We don’t do that in 2015!

See kids, this is how a “cold air intake” is supposed to work.
