Wow. You'd think these stupid Harly Davidson riders could at least afford a decent muffler. I want to cover my ears every time they go by my apartment building.
I know how you feel. We live right on a corner and people driving through this area seem to be under the delusion that this is a Stock Car Raceway. Noisy mufflers, squealing tires, jackrabbit spins from the stop sign. You name it, we got it.
Living on Moreland (b/w Yacht Club and I-20), I was subjected to "loud pipes" every #$%^ing night. Some used Moreland as a motorcycle drag strip of sorts. I understand the "loud pipes save lives" concept as I've many friends among the enthusiasts and don't wish any of them ill luck. Still, I can't but wonder why they must indulge their passion to such great annoyance among others (esp. in a residential neighborhood). If I were allowed to drop a stinking load on each cyclist' doorstep,* I think we could call it even. Leaving that behind is one of the best things about getting rid of that house.
* btw, that is not a passion of mine. Just an example of a rough quid pro quo. ;)
If I pulled the muffler from my diesel Golf, it would be only half as loud, yet I'd be pulled over in a snap. These clowns do it with impunity. Loud pipes save lives, my ass! Don't get me started on these guys.

Buy a Harley, dress like known criminals.
