Noise level while riding(HATE IT!)

[cat hunter]

I agree that if the noise is too much you should wait until Toyota builds a sled! The sound of the sled was the first thing that appealedto me, and even an all day ride doesn't bother me, but that's just my opinion. I could see an aftermarket exhaust being too loud for some, but I love mine.
Hey, how about this for thought. If you guys are cruising right at that speed where you get the resonance, why not just go a little faster to get rid of it. Even with Bender pipes, as soon as I get going past that sensitive speed, it's really quite quiet! Even 45-50 mph gets rid of the noise.
Maybe you're just cruising too slow!

Mine sings a beautiful tune with gutted exhaust at 11,000 rpms.!!!

I do think the noise (harmonics, resonance, whatever you name it), can be annoying, but at least with me, I'd be more concerned about others being bothered by it than me, but I have done the buddy test and I didn't think I could hear it from very far away anyway, so I don't really pay much attention to it.
