That idiot must be waking thousands of others including small children in their beds.
This kind of exhaust fitment is without doubt UNLAWFUL yet the local plod around here seem to not to care. The police do possess considerable powers in these cases.
I'd like to know why these expansion chambers (cans) are being lawfully imported and sold in the first place to all these little twats.
Nearly all these automatic scooters / mopeds are ridden by youngsters. They fly around the streets taking enormous risks taking into account their riding ability etc.
I consider ALL motorcyclists who fit unlawfully loud exhausts to be ruining the good name of the majority decent, responsible, law abiding riders.
Most importantly, why would anyone wish to wake & upset people they have never even met let alone know? 
It's becoming the bane of our lives around here.
The police (Toy Town) are bloody useless.

Im not sticking up for them but i was young once like all off us and had a honda MT5 for 1 month at 16 until it went bang and had a loud pipe, i think its part of growing up as a kid doing stuff like this but yes i understand your point and now if i was a father and it would be waking my child up i would be alittle angry but also i know i did stuff like this
Nearly all these automatic scooters / mopeds are ridden by youngsters. They fly around the streets taking enormous risks taking into account their riding ability etc. = Well thats because they only have passed a CBT so cant ride a bigger bike hence youngsters 16/17
I'd like to know why these expansion chambers (cans) are being lawfully imported and sold in the first place to all these little twats.= its not a hand gun but a loud pipe you can buy from any shop or from ebay
Maybe its better for kids (16/17) to work and get job to be able to buy scooters ect ect rather than do crack or get smashed on street corners.
A 2-stroke sounds loud anyway and more so early in the morning (my car sounds loud early in the morning when i leave at 4am and some street lights go on as i go down the road)
