I listen to Harley Davidson, regardless of whether I’d like to or not.

And their owners make extra sure of it.

My god is that an actual saying? Your average motorbike is more than loud enough as it is!

Those are my favorites. I’m also a fan of Why is the Battery Dead Again (I did something stupid remix) and Filtering at 80.

I used to think the same thing, but then I met my husband who rides, and now I do too. The way he explained it to me is that you need people to hear you, they may not always see you, you at least get a second chance to not get ran over if they can hear you.

And he lied.

If “loud pipes save lives” was actually true, they’d point them forwards.

As someone who uses a HPV Bike for commute, a bit of noise definitely makes it easier to get others to give way.

there’s a difference between being heard and

#BEING FUCKING HEARD

you don’t need the latter to stay alive.

There are few things I hate more than unnecessarily loud bikes. I could care less what the justification might be. Most people hate this shit, and nobody is impressed.

I listen to Harley Davidson whether I want to or not since everyone who plays him does so at maximum volume.

Just like Subaru wrx! Except those always come with the acoustics of a lawnmower and a bag of pop corn…

I don’t get how loud pops are desirable or even good. I once heard a 2k generator make those noises and the muffler literally exploded shortly after.

Eh as a classic car owner I do like having my car noisy and obnoxious but on the other hand I also like being able to have a conversation with my passenger while on the highway at the same time I’ve also been to concerts that are so loud that I can feel my bones vibrating to the point that even I a loud car owner feels like I’m about to pass out from having every part of me shaken so violently so I guess there must be some connection between edm concert fans and car guys that lead to people having stupid loud exhausts

Fun fact 90% of all Harley’s are still on the road, the other 10% made it home.
