except for the annual Rolling Thunder insanity, in my town almost the only harley riders you see are black dudes. Often, in addition to the engine noise, they like to blast R&B / go-go tunes. I have to assume they are all wearing earplugs under their helmets.

Ugh. I had one of those in my old neighborhood back in Reno. Nothing like being jolted awake to the sounds of Harley farts and the Chi-Lites.
2pm or 2am. The dude had no compass of, "Hey, maybe I should tone it down a little."

I think a significant segment of the Harley market is old retired dudes who buy the super-deluxe Electra Glide models and always observe the speed limit.

Nah, they go at least five miles per hour below the posted limits, as to have more idle time to unnecessarily rev the engine and get more potential "admirers."

i know exactly what you mean. i just moved into The Suburbs and a conformist harley davidson just rolled up and spat on me because i make bad posts

my mild annoyance is that they drown out anything inside my car when they're passing by or alongside me in traffic with my windows rolled up, so turning up the stereo is basically pointless because either way I'm going to be deaf
and yeah, double-glazed windows in my house is meaningless when one of those fartbags blasts down my street
obnoxious
but I guess that's the point.

Several years ago in Northern Virginia I saw a guy riding a Harley, while wearing sweatpants. Mixed message much?
