Being a motorcyclist for close to 15 years now, I felt I had to comment too. I agree that "hogs" or any other bike with a loud exhaust is obnoxious if used as a "noise pollution" device in our environment. These few make the rest of us bikers look bad.
As an avid biker, I am careful with how I ride my bike in high-density community areas. After all, I live in one too. The vast majority of bikers are careful with how they ride in and around high-density housing , but unfortunately, there are a few who purposely seem to get a kick out of creating "noise pollution" in the environment as they pass through like a tornado...
