If it's too loud, then the rider is a selfish so and so who doesn't give a damn about anyone else's right to reasonable peace and quiet and only cares about his wanna-be poser bad boy image.
It is a character flaw.
South Park summed it up well.
I've built some pretty powerful machines over the years, and only one of them was LOUD (blown gas flatbottom).
It ran zoomies at the drag races, but at the lake i put bassett headers with baffles to make it LEGAL. It was also well over 1000 hp.
I've built many fast cars, and ALL OF THEM were quiet. Even the V8 914 was so quiet you could not really tell it wasn't stock.
I consider sleepers cool.
If a car is faster than it sounds, that's cool.
If a car is louder than it is fast, that's poser BS.
Now get off my lawn you wipper-snappers!
