Kaw triples known for speed wobbles- the windjammer fairings actually helped them at high speed or the extanded swingarms. Suzi T500s beat the Kaw 500 in road races because they had better weight distribution and could corner- Willow Springs race had Kaws in bushs after trying power through corners, I had a Kaw try to pass me on Suzi around curve- he went in ditch when he twisted throttle. Noisy Harley in some towns are the city budget balancer when police get decible meters. My old Goldwing has a set of custom mufflers beause they were available under $100.00 compared to $400.00 when needed replacement for rot from setting couple years while recovering from radiation treatment- a little noisier but no loud popping at lights. BMWs were nice and quiet- could sneak by police cars at night if needed. I had a set of Triumph mufflers reversed on R69 a couple years- Limie silencers were setting on packrat shelf after the noisy shorties put on Triumph. Stock Sporty mufflers handy to have when tickets and inspection orders issued- or for 1937 UL when can"t find stock exhaust, use 45 G/WL drag pipes with the lefover sporty mufflers. Ford N tractor mufflers can be fitted to Big twins when needed and are 1/2 price stock Harley. BSA speed- My old Thunderbolt single carb model would get 100mph- but was happier at 75/80. Last Lightning chopper was up to about 110+ matching pace on highway for test car but not run much in traffic- no front brake and no baffles, was more a drag strip barely equipped for street class, and was a bit noisy.
