Default Motorcycle noise faces a legislative muffler

That rumble rolling up Valley roads on warm summer evenings is sweet music to some — and a buzz-kill for others.

It’s the roar of motorcycles, revving at stoplights and thundering up and down the street, bouncing shock waves off buildings like the soundtrack of a 1960s biker movie.

For some motorcyclists, the noise is as much a part of the riding experience as fresh air. Harley-Davidson even sought to patent the potato-potato sound of its engines a decade ago.

Cheers,

Speed

Why is it that people think their rights are more important than someone else's? This issue always sorely pisses me off. By the way I love my exhaust thanks to Speed. You rock and so do my pipes LOL.
