Bigging it Up

So, not being able to buy the muscle/sports bike they would like, most bike riders here resort to "enhancing" their machines to make them look and sound larger than they are.  Just like UK kids with their first 50 cc mopeds.

Exhausts are modified to make them sound louder, bigger horns are attached- the horn is kin in these parts as we know, and inexplicably, everyone rides around on full beam.  This last habit is as frustrating as the constant use of the honker as it dazzles everyone (including the pedestrian)  and is downright dangerous.

As if that will ever dissuade them...
