The New Monte ?!?!?
What's gotten into you? I see you're wanting to make a little noise with a set of TORS. That's not the Monte we all know and love.

Maybe Monte was kidding?  But he did remove his AI, didn't he?

Wait a couple of days and I'll tell you what I decided. And it is not TORS, but aftermarket!!!!
My question about louder pipes has always been how much noise Sue should have to put up with when we tour. She usually rides behind me on her Vulcan. If the, gasp, louder pipes are too loud I guess she can lead. Or drop back a hundred yards. We'll see. The deal ain't done yet. And, yep, I do have a Wanted To Buy ad in the classified looking for some TORS.
My shame is almost unbearable.

The plot thickens, TORS, Bubs, or how hard is it to make the stock mufflers straight by banging out the baffles...
