No fact's here but I read an articale once that dismissed that as a old wives tale to a point . There does need to be some length of exhuast pipe but I don't remember if it was for the reason's you mentioned or not . Just think about those high dollar race engines at a straight track , they aren't going to trash a set of $30,000 heads and they run staight pipes with exotic fuel . I've run my Harley for 20 years ( 84 FXST ) with 21" gooseneck style straight pipes with no adverse effects except some hearing loss in my right ear . Still have the same pipes on it though I don't ride it anymore - no time . I've had those pipes glowing bright red on some long high speed runs with misadjusted timing ( I took the e-box out about 2 days after I bought the bike new and put in points ). Needless to say there isn't much chrome left on them these day's ...Randy
