loud pipes

[Jim Douglas]

I have a gazibo in the back yard where the handrails had become loose after 20 years. After pounding in 3" nails it was still as sturdy as I like it. Squeeze some Gorilla Glue in the cracks and the next day it's as strong as cement! Had some leak out which I simply scraped off. The other thing I swear by is the FROG masking tape. It's friggin expensive but worth it! I will NEVER paint without it!

Joking aside, my wife was visibly relieved when she hear my KLR for the first time. We have a neighbor with a Harley with straight pipes and she was SO GRATEFUL that the KLR wasn't loud that I can't bear to put an aftermarket muffler on it. Well, maybe a quiet one. Robert P.
