I do wonder about the bike graphic. Looks like a crotch rocket, which seem to have the shriller exhaust note, versus the loud rumbly pipes of something like a Harley.  Both are loud, I guess, but I usually only hear my middle aged Harley folks use the loud pipes reasoning.  I will say, the way many motorcyclists drive, loud exhausts have helped them stay alive while driving like maniacs/azzclowns.  I appreciate the warning out on the roads, but dislike them in the 'hood.

Do they make tees with different bikes?

That is the point.  Most sport bike riders can ride and do ride, like BR46.   Lots of Harley Riders have never ridden before buying their steel stallion.

I've seen stupid things on all styles of motorcycles. 

I think back to when I got my first street bike at 16. I already had years of riding experience so I thought I was the best rider/street racer around...boy was I wrong. 

I see crotch rocket riders doing stupid maneuvers like splitting lanes, driving 2 and 3 times the speed limit. The midlife crisis Harley rider I see lack of understanding how a motorcycle operates. There's a lot of riders out there that don't know how a motorcycle turns...they think that you just lean your body. Hint you don't just lean there's more involved than that or how your front brakes vs rear brakes work in a turn. 

Staying out of blind spots, being aware of what traffic is doing around you and assuming that car making that left turn doesn't see you. That alone will save your ass more than a annoying exhaust system.

Most of my friends who got motorcycles in HS and college got "crotch rockets".  And they ALL had a blast on them but were likely a cause of a great deal of consternation for those around them.

My sister's best friend - Dave K - was riding his motorcycle (early Honda Hurricane) home on a twisty dark road late at night. He wrecked - hard. They found him a while later, all beat up.  He survived, but multiple broken bones and a long recovery followed.  He's fine now (as far as I know).
