I always found it incrdible shitty that car noises are regulated to some degree and it works okay-ish (where i live) but as soon as you have enough money to buy a supercar, somehow regulations don't apply to you anymore. Same with motorcycles. No bro i swear it's just safer, i need to be heard, it's not about making noise -Pretty much every motorcyclist ever.
Yes it's super safe when you hear a loud banging as soon as you enter a tunnel and everyone needs to turn up their savety device to 12000rpm
Most motorcyclists can't stand those pricks either. What actually saves lives are awareness of your own surroundings, but that involves being personally responsible and the fuckheads with straight pipes have no reference point for when it comes to not blaming other people for their fuckups.
I don't know. I don't care much about motorcycles to be honest. But i heard that so often that i feel like every motorcyclist thinks or parrots that.
I also find it funny how it's all about safety, obviously, but then they ride in shorts and shirts, like what?
There's a certain type of rider that's referred to as "squids." They're the loud pipe, always riding fast, no gear idiots. It applies across all of motorcycling but is most common among sport bike and cruiser riders. If that's the type of rider you run into then yeah you're going to get that impression.
Motorcycles will always be a bit louder than cars because the exhaust systems will always be way shorter but these idiots with the straight pipes can go and do one.
