Same here...although my Z06 is loud and my R1 is kind of loud. The R6 is quiet though.

I wish they were like my boat...it has Captains Choice exhaust and I can make it loud or quiet at the flip of a switch.

No I'm not planning to add cut outs to the car or bikes.

I like the stealth benefit and less-annoying-to-neighbors factor of the OEM muffler, but I plan to switch mine out for an aftermarket with a quiet core this year.
It's a V-twin... it needs a more authoritative voice.

Instead of the sewing machine it sounds like now. There's a guy who goes by my house every day with a 1125. I dont know what he's got on it but I can hear him coming from a mile away.

I have a V4. Making it sound quite is blasphemy.

I don't talk to people that have D&D.

After close to a decade with the SSR2 on the ZX-11. I'm definitely in the quiet camp. Don't like loud bikes at all.
No plans on changing the stock exhaust on the CBR.
