    The only time I've been pulled over, the guy just went "must be bloody nice driving around with that open on a night like this". I think the only reason I got pulled over was it was 1am on a tuesday and noone else was on the road so he got bored, saw an old van and did and RBT.

    In the early 2000s when we all had clapped out hz utes as cheap cars I used to get constantly followed by the police. Now I don't even get a second look. Mind you, the dreadlocks halfway down my back might have had something to do with the image.

    I have both pipes straight out the back. If I point them down, put them out the side behind the wheels, point them down out the side behind the wheels? Will any off these reduce the fumes with the gate up?
