Guzzirider Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Walked past a GTR1400 Kawasaki on Saturday and could not believe the size of the silencer! Makes a Griso pipe look sleek! The Z1000 used to look smart with its 4 small silencers but look what they have done to it now: I am sure the Kawasaki engineers must be able to design a solution that looks better. The aftermarket exhaust manufacturers must be rubbing their hands! Link to comment

Guest ratchethack Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Say Guzzirider. Hate to break it to you, but what's TAKING OVER now goes far far beyond ugly exhausts. . . Under ever-more-stifling, increasingly counter-productive Global Eco-Nazi Extortion/Regulation, mufflers can only get so big before motors will have to start getting smaller to pass ever-more-draconian emissions requirements. Wot's UGLY in the eye of the beholder will no doubt continue to be twisted ever more effectively by propaganda-driven CONSENSUS. D'you expect there'll be any end to it? HINT: It'll never end. Why, within just a few short years on our current track, we'll have exactly wot they've had in mind for us all along -- and wot a BEAUTIFUL THING it'll be. Once the entire planet has been forcibly reverted back to Third World status, the likes o' this will appear on the cover of Green Sport Rider magazine: SEWAGE POWER The Green Toilet Crap-o-Mile Scooter Not only does it accelerate like $hite -- It runs on $hite! Seating for two additional roughage-fed alternate drivers triples the range. NOTE: Hey, Antonio: I'm just joking. Hey, Dave: I'm not joking. Link to comment
belfastguzzi Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Think positive. Think with your stomach, not your eyes. They'd make superb ovens. A hinged flap on the side, put in a couple of pies, go ride, stop when hungry or when the smell indicates they're ready, scoop a ladle of gravy out of the rocker cover – feast. Link to comment
Tom M Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 It's not just ugly exhausts coming out these days Guzzirider. Have you seen the new BMW? They have to be kidding. They've taken their "Bill the Cat" headlight design to a new level of ugly. Link to comment
macguzzi Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 that whole kawasaki thing stinks what are those panniers about. Why oh why do we listen to the green police, go ride a bicycle in traffic. Link to comment

guzzipete Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I really don't like these little stumpy exhausts that seem to be all the rage now... Link to comment
