Not making us any friends. ..
« on: August 20, 2018, 11:15:36 AM »
It is 7:05 AM, in this quiet village....and three newish Harley Ds just roared through town - with loud pipes and 2 stereos playing full blast.
And these guys looked like seniors- because they were each helmeted and geared up.
Old idiots....
Passed a kid on a quiet sport bike coming into town. He gave a wave ....but was riding a bit quick for dark deer country roads. Said a little quick one for him, to Him.

Youngster making my coffee said a liitle sarcastically, "Hey, it's Monday - what's to complain about, right?"
I dropped my head,  "I lost my right to complain about Mondays 2 years ago..."

On a serious note . . .

I despise loud motor vehicles, be it exhaust noise or music noise -- it isn't necessary and is usually against the law -- although almost never enforced.

All my bikes (9 of them) are stock with stock exhaust -- I like quiet.
