I have had aftermarket pipes on my bikes in the past. The snarl on wide open roads feels good and it has nothing to do with manhood. If you don't open it up it won't bother anyone. The feeling is no different than growling pipes on sports cars and trucks. People who look at cars and bikes as transportation appliances don't understand it. Jeep owners have a saying, "It is a Jeep Thing, You Wouldn't Understand".
