after much consideration…

As soon as I brought the new bike home, I removed the windshield and put on the loud exhaust that came with it. I have now been able to ride the bike 3-4 times. I have not been really really impressed with them because of the fact that they are REALLY loud. Enough to the point that Nan had considered wearing ear plugs when we go out. That is not cool.
So I was going to go out this afternoon. Got 5 minutes out of town and then turned around, came back to Dennis’ place and put the other pipes back on. Phew! Now I can think when I am riding!
I was able to go for an hour and a half tour. It was really nice.

I certainly do feel the wind without the windshield. That and I am wearing a half-helmet.
So, my bike is not so loud. I think it was almost obnoxious. Glad that is no more.
