Harley's Patented Sound

[Jeff Higgins]

Yeah, the boy racers on their 600 fours. Yoshimura or whatever other aftermarket exhaust at 13,000 rpm will flat blister the paint on your car. Next to the fart cannon equiped cars, the most annoying sound on the road. And let's not forget their Power Ranger uniforms; full race leathers replete with sponsor patches and the whole deal. They sure look fast, though.

Once, and only once in my whole life, I had the pleasure of smoking a pair of these budding Barry Sheenes through the local twisties. On my goddam Road King. Throwing sparks from both floorboards all the way, but boy was it satisfying. Of course I won't even think about it with most, but these two just had the "poser" air about them and rode like rank novices. Picking on some poor old fart on his Harley - they should have been ashamed of themselves.

Yup; these clowns have permeated all ranks, not just H-D. Go to a PCA tour or other event sometime; same kind shows up there. I just love blowing some MFI soot from my sport muffler all over their Khakis and Birkenstocks.
