    Just obnoxious bikes that somehow have a slower 0-60 than a 1982 civic while being louder than a mustang with the muffler removed

      Not to mention those bikes sometimes have stereos just as loud and obnoxious as those mustangs now too. They’re the whole package!

        Don’t you understand?

        Making a lot of noise is the only way they can be noticeable, surely they couldn’t do something like wear a high vis vest or take their own safety seriously just in general.

        Clearly the only option is to be even louder and more annoying…

        There’s a difference between being loud enough to be noticeable and making shit tons of noise for absolutely fuck all reason

          My former articulation is ambiguous and I didn’t convey what I truly meant: I fucking hate loud bikes! And for those assholes that drive them, being obnoxiously loud is one of the points why they drive those things.

          I did not mean that bikes need to be loud to be recognized.
