    Had a friend who said he was considering removing the exhaust on his bike because it would sound cooler, everyone else in the friendgroup said we would pour sugar in his gastank if he ever did that

        Huh, yeah it seems the sugar in the gastank thing is just a myth, but won’t sugar in the oil have the same issue? Sugar is insoluble so it can’t pass through the oil filter, so it’ll just chill in the filter and oil pan?

    New Rule: if the motorcycle you purchased exceeds noise ordinance levels for a given area, said motorcycle cannot be sold, driven, or registered in that area, nor can it be parked in a public parking spot in that area.

    Honestly though, I wish police would simply enforce noise ordinances and anyone with more than one violation would have their bike impounded.

      I’m fine with bikes being noisy. Bikes can be hard to see, sometimes I hear them before I see them.

      I’m not fine with douchenozzles intentionally revving them up in otherwise quiet subdivisions as the OP describes.
