We usually bump heads but I definately agree with you there. One of those choppers passed me the other day and that's probably the loudest bike I've ever heard period.

hahah i never understood how a lil thing like a harley or chopper can make such a big noise! it sounds like those old ww2 era bombers! its gotta be against the laws of whatever law that governs sound for that much noise to come out of an engine that small.

I think I posted pics of the car from the front already, if that's what you're asking.

I would love to see it in person. Where are you located?

i agree one hundred percent, i hate the noise they make. It is unessacary to begin with and its obnoxious. But sadly (in CA) motorcycles fall under a different noice polution law, but i have heard aircraft that are quieter.

It looks really good (especially on a red car) but I'd never do it. Most drivers out there are complete idiots who dont notice what goes on around them.
