Also making excessive noise shouldn't give someone permission to vandalize a car, if that was true every Harley Davidson driver would deserve to have their bikes tipped over. That or every teenager who has a late night party would deserve to have their house egged.
Absolutely nailed it. I'm not being loud on purpose, I try to keep it as quiet as I can during off hours.

Nothing new. I cleaned the grease off the wheels and there was an astounding amount of grease in the inner barrels.

If only I had time like that!

The mufflers are engineered to not only remove the noise but also the reverberation.
I actually tried this today. I can't hear anything besides a VERY faint hmmmmm. Not a chance it could wake somebody up.

I also live on the busiest street downtown and there are loud open piped Harleys that drive by here all the time. But still living on the busiest street in the city one wouldn't expect it to be dead quiet all the time.
