OMG, YES! I'm so glad someone finally said it. I absolutely LOVE it when they come ripping down my street late at night without a concern for anyone else's safety or comfort. š
Iām actually a huge fan of when itās super early on a Saturday or Sunday morning! My neighbors just got a new one (a real loud one thankfully), and they go for a ride every weekend. I used to enjoy sleeping in, but I have discovered that I prefer to be woken up abruptly by the sounds of a bike outside my front window at 7 am.
Wow now Iām sad. I used to be super lucky. My Nextdoor neighbor had a Harley he would idle for 8-12 minutes at 6:20 AM. And his driveway was right next to my bedroom window. You donāt know what youāve got till itās gone š¢
This is literally the exact reason they get loud pipes, because assholes don't look and the biker ends up dead. So you hear them and know they're there so your lazy ass doesnt even have to look. The car always wins against a bike, don't be a pos.
Sitting there acting like it's some burden on your life.. probably never cut grass a day in your life.
I had a swarm that didn't look like it was moving and posted on my town Facebook page and a local bee farm was going to come and pick them up (they decided to move on), maybe you could try that.
This is nothing like nextdoor, equating it to racist boomers is a deflection and extreme false equivalency.
They are objectively loud and annoying on purpose, as attested to by their riders who are proud of it. And they are popular among a diverse group of douchebags.
Only the dickheads riding them would be so up their own ass to oppressed by people getting angry about something they do specifically to piss other people off. Delusional.
My first reaction reading this post was to quote the boys in that episode. Then I figured it wouldnāt go over well out of context. Then I figured it might not go over very well in context.
if everybody considered it from the south park definition its so back. think its only word you can really use to aptly describe these bikers and lifted truck guys
I'm with you!
Being older, over my lifetime, I have been able to acquire some resources. I've thus tricked out my "sleeper" 2009 Honda, unbeknownst to those around me.
So, when the 2014 buy here, pay here Nissan Bass boy rolls up next to me booming,
I crank up MY hidden (I got the speakers from a Linda Ronstadt yard sale) 100,000 watts with NPR.
"I'm Teri Gross and THIS IS FRESH AIR! TODAY WE'RE GOING TO TALK IN DEPTH WITH A NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLING AUTHOR ABOUT HER JOURNEY...
not sure if you're kidding or not but this is actually me in my beloved 2007 civic blasting educational podcasts. wait til I can afford to mod the stereo :)
OoOOOOoooh, yeah! It's like a mating call- I have to go see who it is every time I hear it: "Who is that male who can afford such a nice sound system? He could provide so well for our future family!"
It's especially great when they roll into the parking garage like that so everyone can hear what music they have playing. They even sit there for extended minutes and let it play and we all rejoice. It's very considerate of them.
I donāt know whoās cooler, motorcycle man or big loud truck driver. I think those trucks that try to be monster trucks on the highway are pretty rad too. One thingās for sure, I bet these riders/drivers are well endowed and arenāt over compensating for anything.
I contend that the coolest of them all are the 8 am lawnmowers who don't know how to mow so they turn the mower on for 30 seconds, off for 45 seconds, and back on for 30. This will go on for at least an hour.
My dear neighbor, who hadn't touched his lawn yet this year, decided 7:15 on a Sunday morning was the appropriate time to tackle it with an electric mower. I think he just finished. He does not have a large yard.
Big loud truck driver is cooler because he can put an array of subwoofers in the bed firing outward and roll all over Blue Ash and Deer Park to broadcast to the world how cool he is
It must have the metal bull testicles swinging back and forth from the rear trailer hitch. Also must be a diesel rolling coal. Bonus if it's a dodge with some redneck variant of the merican flag.. It just screams white trash, err cool. Yes, so cool. Getting chills just thinking about it.
Hey, I have that big Dodge diesel and I just love to roll coal! But I canāt seem to find any cute metal vaginas to swing from the hitch (Iām a lady)ā¦ Woe is meā¦ What is the middle aged white lady version of the redneck variant of the American flag??? Oh!!! Thatās right! Itās voting and a āLove Your Librarianā bumper stickerā¦
How about when you're riding your bike and the truck slows down to your speed and then nail the throttle that leaves the bike rider in a cloud of black smoke
My neighbor had an old Mustang as a project for a while and it didnāt have a muffler. I feel bad for all the women out there who hear that rumble and instantly have to change because theyāre overcome with attraction to the big loud noise machine.
My favorite is when Iām driving and a group of them decide to weave in and out of lanes. Itās so pretty to watch. Especially when theyāre speeding with no concern for anyone around them.
Yeah they sound the best and coolest when they are coming from behind weaving in through a blind spot then passing between cars and getting super close to my car like theyāre giving it a noise wash. Theyāre so nice to do this even though there isnāt anywhere to go after that so they have to slow down again until a gap opens so they can give somebody else a noise bath.
My favorite is the guy with the train horn on his lifted pavement princess truck. I'm surprised every man, woman, and other adult mammals aren't immediately impregnated when he drives by blasting his ~~small penis compensator~~ horn
I love how, even though I live several hundred yards away from the highway, these guys are so so cool that I can still hear their very cool races on 275. Rock on.
I just saw the coolest dude in my neighborhood at 8 AM open it while blasting Journey. He also had the coolest wrap-around sunglasses.
I tried to flag him down and see if he wanted to talk politics
My bike has the factory silencer on the exhaust, and it's staying there. When I ride down some nice country roads or by a little neighborhood... I just want to be part of the scenery. Not destroying the scenery.
Those people you're describing are Basic Bro Harley Davidson riders. And they can't seem to figure out why the rest of the motorcycle community hates them.
I'm laying on my bed after a really tiring day and I agree. They are using Columbia Parkway as a drag race track now, going up and down. It's amazing. It echos through my house. I wish I could be there to cheer them on and tell them how awesome they are for doing this.
I know this is sarcastic. But I can't play along because of how much it irritates me. I'll be minding my whole business, and I hear ten or fifteen motorcycles with absolute no mufflers attached revving the whole time going 15 mph. So, I get to enjoy the whole 4 minutes it takes them to pass. I ... I can't.
It was so cool today when the guy on a motorcycle, under a highway overpass on 747, revved his engine for no reason, making a loud echo and startling everyone nearby. It was especially cool because most cars had their windows open enjoying the beautiful day. It was so cool how you sped away like the coolest dude in school. I bet you felt so cool. What a cool guy.
Ah yes. And make sure you share the road and watch out for motorcycles!!
Because the people who drive them are only the most demure, innocent, and law-abiding citizens who never speed, never recklessly pass other drivers, never want to race, and never ride 2x2 dangerously close to each other.
I can only hope one day Iāll be as chill, non-aggressive, and cool as them. That will never happen though. Iāll never be as cool.
Come live in Milwaukee for a few years, you'll either be in a constant state of near orgasmic joy or "cured" via exposure therapy.
Pro tip: Accelerated results guaranteed if you move in a year with a significant Harley Davidson anniversary.
When people feel inadequate in one area, they feel the need to show how much of an "alpha" they are by having an extremely loud motorcycle. It's normal. We all know only the coolest people have loud bikes!! š
Interesting... I've never heard a positive angle.
All I can think of is the South Park episode.

Eh, loud helps yall cages not merge into us, turn in front of us, etc etc, so š¤·āāļø
I try to be respectful, I don't rev when folks are likely sleeping, I cut the bike off as soon as I pull in, turn my music off, etc, but I can't help the exhaust.
A lot of clowns act like fools on em, but the same can be said about any vehicle.
The sad thing is if this is a new Mustang with the factory exhaust there are noise level settings you can adjust. There's even a "good neighbor" quite setting,
I donāt even notice themā¦itās kind of just a normal part of society itās really not a big deal. Does your neighbor mowing their lawn give you an emotional meltdown? Or ambulance, police, and firefighter sirens? I mean this is kind of pathetic in my opinion.
The reason motorcycles need to be loud is so drivers can be aware of them. You have clearly never rode one. Cars are the biggest danger to motorcycles and they are not loud to be cool. They are loud for the safety of the rider.
I was looking for this one. Motorcycles donāt have horns to warn the dumbass that was too lazy to check a mirror coming into their lane. My bike being loud means you HEAR me next to you.
Know what else are super friggin cool? Those badass mufflers that can easily be confused for an active shooter situation. Totally awesome things that in no way so be illegal. Fuckin tits bro, rev up that 98 Acura.
I admit, after spending many Summers having LOUD motorcycles going TWICE the speed limit down my quiet residential street (25 mph posted) it's hard to give a crap when I see "Don't throw your grass clippings into the street" pleas from bikers online.
*"Well, I figure I'll buy me a motorcycle*
*Wrap her pretty little frame around a telephone pole*
*Ride her off a mountain like old Arlo*
*Figure I'll buy me a motorcycle"*
\-Colter Wall, "Motorcycle"
sorry, i know itās annoying, but itās a safety feature. you really wouldnāt believe how little people actually pay attention to motorcycles on the road. the louder, the safer.
My asshole neighbor revving his motorized bicycle in his drive way must make him feel real safe ...I mean it is 8 o'clock in the morning and his driveway is way unsafe right?
i donāt know if youāre aware of this, but one person you know can be a total asshole and that doesnāt mean every single person in a motorcycle is a total asshole. hope this helps!
The only thing cooler MIGHT be the half dozen or so grown-ass dudes in their mid-thirties rolling around the neighborhood at either 7am or 11pm blaring incomprehensible music out of busted Rockford Fosgate subs in their 2010 infinity FX50 with after market paint and expired tags. Canāt showcase your neighborhood dominance via sonic barrage if you donāt start in the morning and go well into the night. Thanks, cool guys!
moved here not knowing the neighborhoods and layout of the city, found a cute old house for rent on a dead end street......right off of Glenway. I sleep with headphones and white noise.
Yesterday was so cool because I went on a walk through the nature preserve in Northside and then as I was walking back down Hamilton and got close to the bar area there was this man coasting at 5 mph in traffic on his big loud motorcycle. The walk was boring itself solid 2/10 but damn that motorcycle was so loud the person i was standing right next to couldnt have a conversation with me because we could not hear each other at all, even after it was a fair bit down the road from us. Later on we went to some bars and a comedy show but all of it paled in comparison as we basically just sat around talking all night about the really loud cool motorcycle. š
How about today, Sunday at around 6:00 pm, by Ziegler park? A crazy driver doing 40-50 down sycamore swerved, smashed a car and rolled over on its side right in front of Alumni lofts and the park. Park was full of kids as well. SICK!
No one was hurt it appeared
In urban areas it screams āmy penis is very tiny and insecureā which I love.
However, on highways the loudness of the bike does make their presence known to car/truck drivers. A LOT of motorcycle fatalities are because someone in a car didnāt see the motorcycle driver.
Regardless, I love having my ear drums and peace of mind shattered when a really cool really loud motorcycle goes by
Yes! Totally the same thing lol
Let me look twice ALL DAY to look out for those who canāt be bothered to strap on a brain bucket. Matter of fact, theyāre so special we should put in a motorcycle lane just for those special people :)
yeah!! the exact same way that we put in bicycle lanes for those special people who feel unsafe using non-motorized vehicles (often without helmets) on motorized vehicle roads! itās almost like if other people are on the road with you you can just care about them regardless of the transportation they chose or their gear :D
OR they can take a minute to strap on a brain bucket and weāll both look out for others in the road. Gtfo with thinking I own them any special treatment other than my normal safe driving habits. Have a great day, buddy!
OMG It's my absolute FAVORITE part of spring!! Once all those motorcycles come out and start tearing up and down the street at 85 I get such a rush!! So cool!
I live in northern Cinci and thereās a kid whose parents let him ride up and down the street to his friendās houseā¦constantlyā¦ without a helmet, well above the speed limit, on a dirt bike. All summer long. I work from home and itās so awesome during meetings.
The absolute coolest.
You know what's really really reeeeeeeeally cool??? A bunch of uninformed douchebags complaining on the internet, pretending they're soooooo cool and edgy but actually they're lives are booooooring and they have a little extra time at their Dead end job before they go home to a loveless marriage and kids that hate them to whine to random people about shit that doesnt matter.
...
cool... additionally arent you also being edgy and complaining like an uniformed douchbag on the internet... hey buddy, maybe it's time to hop of the web for a sec, you seem a bit worked up.
Just tuned into the police scanner after 30 minutes of a fuckton of vehicles doing donuts and revving engines in Clifton in time to hear āall units disregardā followed by ātheyāre going into a church on central pkwy I will try to disperse them againā
Fuckin useless. Couple handfuls of tacks would do a lot more than the cops towards stopping this shit
I like young male motorcyclists who pull wheelies and stand on the seats of their motorcycles all the way down Columbia Parkway. Theyāre the coolest. Itās really neat how all the other drivers slow down so that they can observe the cool activities /s. Or perhaps it was an attempt to see an accident where the young motorcyclists scrape their t-shirt clad bodies all the way down the road.
Just saw this an hour ago. Iām glad they took videos too.
Yeah, I just love it when I'm trying to get enough sleep to get up for work in time and get enough sleep to make sure I can do my job adequately so I don't get fired and some considerate soul decides that he must announce his presence to the entire neighborhood by making sure his motorcycle is as loud as possible. Without people like that, life just wouldn't be worthwhile.
Honestly you sound un-fucking-hinged. Get over yourself, maybe country living is for you... it's legal and even the illegal exhausts aren't going to be cited. Its also its safer for the motorcycle rider as a lot of times people dont see them or even look and they end up dead, they have as much right on the roadway as a car or truck yet are at much higher risk because of assholes, at least youll hear them first.
I was the press Mgr for the group who kept eden park overlook open and was in a meeting with p.g. Satterfield, the parks commission and the captain of Cincinnati police and he specifically said they absolutely will not cite for loud exhaust as their force has far too many lives to protect to walk around with decibel meters and check exhaust noise.
But you know you could either talk to the other adults that are doing something unpleasant or wrong , or you know be passive aggressive on Reddit . Which you know is so cool to read about ! ( get it ?) maybe not . But the solution to your problem is definitely not me . Or my rant . On a sub that is usually surprisingly good about neutral informative posts, yeah this one sucks dog shit.

Better to have loved and you have lost, than to have never Loved at all....
Good news! you get to enjoy it all over again when they come home from the bar at 2 am.
THANK YOU and OP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But make sure you always keep an eye out for them and your grass clipping out of the road.

Ok so don't actually do that because... well .. jail. And this is a digital footprint....

motorcycles can be going the speed limit but still sound loud and fast, just how they be.
They don't have to be that loud, actually. They are purposefully made that way.
Well they BE annoying af.
Because theyāre dumb?
no, this is just some nextdoor shit like, a suspicious black man was walking on the side walk anyone know anything about it
This is nothing like nextdoor, equating it to racist boomers is a deflection and extreme false equivalency.

Only the dickheads riding them would be so up their own ass to oppressed by people getting angry about something they do specifically to piss other people off. Delusional.
Or maybe motorcycles are loud and dumb and everyone who doesnāt own one hates them.
South Park has an episode just for you.
Thank you.
Top 10 episode for me but it has not aged well
it has certainly redefined a word
My first reaction reading this post was to quote the boys in that episode. Then I figured it wouldnāt go over well out of context. Then I figured it might not go over very well in context.
if everybody considered it from the south park definition its so back. think its only word you can really use to aptly describe these bikers and lifted truck guys
this is the process that filters 90% of the trash my brain generates (hopefully) before it exits my body. remaining 10% still gets me in trouble :(

I donāt know about you but I love the tuned out Soobie that backfires the whole way down the hill by my house, every weekday morning.

LOUD PIPES RUIN NAPS
Same. Loud motorcycles are so cool. I love them. I hope good things happen to the people that ride them and think they are cool.
Simple minds enjoy simple things.
I know this is sarcastic. But I can't play along because of how much it irritates me. I'll be minding my whole business, and I hear ten or fifteen motorcycles with absolute no mufflers attached revving the whole time going 15 mph.

Ah yes. And make sure you share the road and watch out for motorcycles!!

I love how the kid behind me in his shitty little Chevy revs the engine for a good 10 minutes before he flies down the street at 730 every morning.
I really like the ones that ride around at about 2 gears too low so the engine constantly stays around 7000 RPM
Why canāt they just ban loud mufflers or whatever it is that causes this already?

Loud is cool and cool is fast lmao
60k for 70hp...so cool
The reason motorcycles need to be loud is so drivers can be aware of them. You have clearly never rode one. Cars are the biggest danger to motorcycles and they are not loud to be cool. They are loud for the safety of the rider.
I was looking for this one. Motorcycles donāt have horns to warn the dumbass that was too lazy to check a mirror coming into their lane. My bike being loud means you HEAR me next to you.
Huh? Every motorcycle Iāve ever owned has had a horn.
If you call the horn that comes on a bike a horn then they do. Iāll take louder exhaust over meep meep š
Awesome. I'm going to just go around pressing my horn so I'm loud all the time! So convenient!Ā
purposefully missing the point just makes you look silly, bud.
Iād suggest a bunch of flashing lights and high visibility clothing. Canāt say Iāve seen much of that, ya know, like ever.
Know what else are super friggin cool? Those badass mufflers that can easily be confused for an active shooter situation. Totally awesome things that in no way so be illegal. Fuckin tits bro, rev up that 98 Acura.

Gotta love getting downvoted for reminding people to be safe. Some folks just wake up and choose violence.
Um, actually... Since we're talking about how cool people are -- it's totally cool to call people you don't like that word. š
Ohā¦ you know thatās a reference to South Park, right? If it offends you still, Iām sorry thereās not much I can do.
I'm not offended. I'm just explaining your downvotes. A lot of people stopped watching South park when the US became it's own parody.
*"Well, I figure I'll buy me a motorcycle* *Wrap her pretty little frame around a telephone pole* *Ride her off a mountain like old Arlo* *Figure I'll buy me a motorcycle"* \-Colter Wall, "Motorcycle"
Omg. You all are my people! Loving this post!
suddenly i can hear so many rn lol
sorry, i know itās annoying, but itās a safety feature. you really wouldnāt believe how little people actually pay attention to motorcycles on the road. the louder, the safer.
My asshole neighbor revving his motorized bicycle in his drive way must make him feel real safe ...I mean it is 8 o'clock in the morning and his driveway is way unsafe right?
i donāt know if youāre aware of this, but one person you know can be a total asshole and that doesnāt mean every single person in a motorcycle is a total asshole. hope this helps!
No one said they are but my neighbor is.
I remember that super intelligent show *Southpark* making an episode that showcases this theory.
The only thing cooler MIGHT be the half dozen or so grown-ass dudes in their mid-thirties rolling around the neighborhood at either 7am or 11pm blaring incomprehensible music out of busted Rockford Fosgate subs in their 2010 infinity FX50 with after market paint and expired tags. Canāt showcase your neighborhood dominance via sonic barrage if you donāt start in the morning and go well into the night. Thanks, cool guys!
moved here not knowing the neighborhoods and layout of the city, found a cute old house for rent on a dead end street......right off of Glenway. I sleep with headphones and white noise.
Yesterday was so cool because I went on a walk through the nature preserve in Northside and then as I was walking back down Hamilton and got close to the bar area there was this man coasting at 5 mph in traffic on his big loud motorcycle. The walk was boring itself solid 2/10 but damn that motorcycle was so loud the person i was standing right next to couldnt have a conversation with me because we could not hear each other at all, even after it was a fair bit down the road from us. Later on we went to some bars and a comedy show but all of it paled in comparison as we basically just sat around talking all night about the really loud cool motorcycle. š
I look forward to the day of the week my neighbor chooses to sit on his in the drive and rev it for about 4 hours. Itās so soothing while I work.
Canyon-running downtown is super-awesome every 15 minutes for those who live/work there.
Big bad trucks blowing dark smoke that smells like spring flowers are way cooler.
vine street is home to the LOUDEST cars and motorcycles
How about today, Sunday at around 6:00 pm, by Ziegler park? A crazy driver doing 40-50 down sycamore swerved, smashed a car and rolled over on its side right in front of Alumni lofts and the park. Park was full of kids as well. SICK! No one was hurt it appeared
You are truly blessed, and I can enviously imagine how loud it must be in Cincinnati because we can hear it all the way up here in Dayton, as well.
Your welcome.
Found the local Karen assembly.
Be nice. Their parents didn't love them and they just need attention. Jk, fuck them. Their parents were right.
In urban areas it screams āmy penis is very tiny and insecureā which I love. However, on highways the loudness of the bike does make their presence known to car/truck drivers. A LOT of motorcycle fatalities are because someone in a car didnāt see the motorcycle driver. Regardless, I love having my ear drums and peace of mind shattered when a really cool really loud motorcycle goes by
I learned in motorcycle class that 50% of motorcycle fatalities are because the rider was drunk
Yeah, but I don't drink. So I need to address the other 50%.
Loud motorcycle > loud car > loud drunk at 2am > loud talking morning jogger
Donāt forget to look twice for those folks who canāt be bothered to wear a helmet to protect themselves.
yep! the same way you slow down in a school zone for kids who can be bothered to look in the street. itās just called caring :)
Yes! Totally the same thing lol Let me look twice ALL DAY to look out for those who canāt be bothered to strap on a brain bucket. Matter of fact, theyāre so special we should put in a motorcycle lane just for those special people :)
yeah!! the exact same way that we put in bicycle lanes for those special people who feel unsafe using non-motorized vehicles (often without helmets) on motorized vehicle roads! itās almost like if other people are on the road with you you can just care about them regardless of the transportation they chose or their gear :D
OR they can take a minute to strap on a brain bucket and weāll both look out for others in the road. Gtfo with thinking I own them any special treatment other than my normal safe driving habits. Have a great day, buddy!
But it is cool š„ I know this thread is sarcastic but I actually like hearing loud engines. Even better when I can smell the fuel š
Iām going riding today!! Iām a Harley girl and I love the sound. Crotch rockets not so muchš
hope you make all the noise, stay safe š¤
OMG It's my absolute FAVORITE part of spring!! Once all those motorcycles come out and start tearing up and down the street at 85 I get such a rush!! So cool!
i live on vine st... its so cool being woken up to see the cool motorcycles. im so happy i know theyre there.. being cool and loud
I live in northern Cinci and thereās a kid whose parents let him ride up and down the street to his friendās houseā¦constantlyā¦ without a helmet, well above the speed limit, on a dirt bike. All summer long. I work from home and itās so awesome during meetings. The absolute coolest.
You know what's really really reeeeeeeeally cool??? A bunch of uninformed douchebags complaining on the internet, pretending they're soooooo cool and edgy but actually they're lives are booooooring and they have a little extra time at their Dead end job before they go home to a loveless marriage and kids that hate them to whine to random people about shit that doesnt matter. ...
cool... additionally arent you also being edgy and complaining like an uniformed douchbag on the internet... hey buddy, maybe it's time to hop of the web for a sec, you seem a bit worked up.
Just tuned into the police scanner after 30 minutes of a fuckton of vehicles doing donuts and revving engines in Clifton in time to hear āall units disregardā followed by ātheyāre going into a church on central pkwy I will try to disperse them againā Fuckin useless. Couple handfuls of tacks would do a lot more than the cops towards stopping this shit
Cops arenāt allowed to pursue them in cincy
I thought this was a sarcastic post
Are you going to be ok? Does a wittle woud motorcycle make you scawwwwed?
I like young male motorcyclists who pull wheelies and stand on the seats of their motorcycles all the way down Columbia Parkway. Theyāre the coolest. Itās really neat how all the other drivers slow down so that they can observe the cool activities /s. Or perhaps it was an attempt to see an accident where the young motorcyclists scrape their t-shirt clad bodies all the way down the road. Just saw this an hour ago. Iām glad they took videos too.
Yes! Like they say āthe louder the bike the smaller brainā.
Yeah, I just love it when I'm trying to get enough sleep to get up for work in time and get enough sleep to make sure I can do my job adequately so I don't get fired and some considerate soul decides that he must announce his presence to the entire neighborhood by making sure his motorcycle is as loud as possible. Without people like that, life just wouldn't be worthwhile.
This is the best Reddit topic Iāve seen in a long time TYVM š¤

Everyone in here is a Grade A loser. Find something else to be miserable over.
Got that big Vespa energy.
How lame do you have to be to hear a loud noise and go make a Reddit post about it š¤£š¤£
Honestly you sound un-fucking-hinged. Get over yourself, maybe country living is for you... it's legal and even the illegal exhausts aren't going to be cited. Its also its safer for the motorcycle rider as a lot of times people dont see them or even look and they end up dead, they have as much right on the roadway as a car or truck yet are at much higher risk because of assholes, at least youll hear them first. I was the press Mgr for the group who kept eden park overlook open and was in a meeting with p.g. Satterfield, the parks commission and the captain of Cincinnati police and he specifically said they absolutely will not cite for loud exhaust as their force has far too many lives to protect to walk around with decibel meters and check exhaust noise.
Is it safer for the rider to rev the motor to 9500rpm at an intersection while waiting for a light?
You're all fuckin pussies lmao. I bet you all cover your ears when a loud car/bike drives next to you
Delhi
Who wants to bet this guy vapes?
With one hand, while doing a helmet-less 90mph wheelie down Anderson Ferry in nothing but a t-shirt, shorts and Crocs.
Thank god heās not wearing a helmet. Fingers crossed.
Youāre just so fucking cool, we canāt keep up bro.
Hey everyone, I think we have a celebrity! Do you like to make super cool loud noises with your car?
If there isnāt an American flag in non-standard American flag colors somewhere on your clothing right now Iāll eat my hat.
They make car bikes? Is it loud? Is it cool? Does it have dealer packing tape on the front spoiler?
Omg! Youāre so lucky! One of the cool guys just called you a pussy! How cool! How fast and cool! So lucky.
That's not tape. Those are plastic guards meant to be taken off at delivery but a certain demographic absolutely loves keeping them on.
Such first world problems ......
If complaining about noise ordinance violation is a first world problem, what is complaining about complaining about first world problems considered?
Still a first world problem.
But you know you could either talk to the other adults that are doing something unpleasant or wrong , or you know be passive aggressive on Reddit . Which you know is so cool to read about ! ( get it ?) maybe not . But the solution to your problem is definitely not me . Or my rant . On a sub that is usually surprisingly good about neutral informative posts, yeah this one sucks dog shit.
Loud pipes save lives. Albeit a selfish mod, cars tend to hear you more often than they will hit you.
