Did you really expect there to be something about loud pipes?

The physics of loud pipes saves lives shows it to be a myth.

The only way you'd find that was if there was an actual study.

"I almost broke Google looking for a large-scale, objective, scientifically
conducted, peer-reviewed study showing that users of loud pipes have a
lower mortality rate compared to other motorcyclists."

"On the surface it seems obvious that the noise emitted by loud motorcycle
exhaust systems would aid in conspicuity and cause more watchful driving by
other motorists. Yet not a single thoughtful study has been done that
supports the theory."

Like I said, you don't understand the difference between an actual
study and opinion pieces. You take anything anyone puts up on a
website as "data", even when it's obviously just opinion. Yet when
someone takes the time to explain the physics of something to you,
like I did with that whole endless BS about torque and work/energy,
you just ignore it, don't even comment on it and it's off to the next
internet fluff piece, which you treat as gospel.
