Do not how many of you have already seen this but it is worth reading:

I believe that we can either participate and try to steer the coming changes or sit back and get run over. I am a Life Member of the AMA as I feel it gives us some clout with TPTB. I do not agree with all of their positions but a unified voice has to be better than silence.
Back on topic, I have a Leo Vinci with insert on my FZ1 and find it to be not too loud. But I am careful to not get on it in residential areas and I don't ride it to work (I leave around 5:30AM). Given the cost of the Akro I seriously doubt that I would go that route. Hopefully the aftermarket will self police themselves so government doesn't do it for them and riders will have options if they so choose.
