Anyone like to just rev their engine before the light turns green? It sounds so good. LOL.
Do you rev the engine at lights?

No, that falls into squidly behavior where I'm from. Well, maybe if it's cold and the bike is about to stall or something of that nature. Never just to hear the engine.

If I put it in neutral, I find a blip on the throttle helps me knock it down to 1st easier.

I'll 'twitch' it up maybe 500rpm occasionally... not a real rev.

Is the d&d loud cash? You know if I had a bike I might rev it in my driveway and listen to it pur, but I don't. BTW just curious who makes the loudest pipes. I've heard that d&d ran like 109db or something. I dont like it just loud, I like the smooth superbike sound.

by myself: i'll blip it a little, not trying to make a scene, but for my own enjoyment.
with others: all it takes is one guy in the group to do it and it gets way out of control.

All the time, I sit at a light and hold the throttle at about 4,500 RPM's until it changes.
my akro sounds smooth and sweet, it is pretty quiet too.UM John said:
my bf has an Arata on his Gix1k and that thing growls. When there is a group of us (like 4 or more), one will rev it, he'll rev his and look right at me, so I'll rev a little, but with the Akro, it don't sound like much.

Loudest? LOL probably D+D crappiest sounding too IMO at least on my bike it is. The Carbon Ti Yoshi I had on the bike when I crashed it sounded superb, maybe it was the sexy coloring of the header pipes alluring me into thinking it sounded better...UM John said:
The Carbon can defiantly made it quieter. I had a alloy can used the same core size (2 1/2") and it had a harder sound to it. The drawback is carbon tends to fall apart faster. Stainless will out live everything weigh the most and probably be the loudest..The rev thing at lights... ewwwwww !! Squidis Maxumus
LOL I have a Friend I ride with occasional that is Mr. Cop Magnet! He sits at a light and acts as if he is seriously attempting to wear out the throttle cable!!! constantly going from idle - max - idle - max with maybe a second bursts!
Think of the most irritating possible way to rev a bike and he's doing it.... at EVERY light. I refuse to pull up to him. On the road he's cool. At stops *dork mode* auto engages !
instantly looks like Alfred Hitchcock The Birds.. the trees empty, people in there cars roll up windows, baby's begin to cry, dogs flipping in backseats you name it... embarrassing as hell. 
i only like to rev when i go under freeways, i just like the sound of the echos
i also have a d&d on the r6 which is too damn loud (but i did get the pipe for free), ive wanted to try those fmf powercore s cause nobody really has those and they look decent, but i've never heard them, has anyone heard them??
