What does straight pipe mean?

[Edmond]

Does that mean no cats and no mufflers?

Or does it mean that you have cats but no mufflers?

From the reading I've done, it seems to be either and I would like to know what everyone else here thinks it is.

To an old-timer like me, it means "nothin' but pipe".

It means LOUD!:L

My neighbor has a 800cc Triumph chopper with straight pipes. I can hear it when he starts it up.

Did I mention that he lives 1/4mi away, with a couple dozen houses and a hundred or so trees between us?

If it's got cats, it isn't straight pipe! For me, pipe means nothin' but pipe for the exhaust to rumble and roll through..
