I know the feeling. There's an annual Harley tourist thing here every fall. I live far enough from the major highway that I can barely hear normal traffic, but get a few thousand Harleys running up and down the road, and the noise level is unbearable even inside the house.
So far I've managed to get out of town on that weekend, but I dread the chance of a time when I can't. It'd be me on a hill with the AK-47 and about a thousand rounds.
It's something I don't understand at all: I've ridden motorcycles most of my life, but I always liked mine quiet. Even sold one Yamaha after a few weeks 'cause it was too loud. What makes people want to make noise like that? Is it just insecurity that makes them feel like big bad dudes 'cause they've got loud pipes?
