I'm tired of the friggin' Harley's and their loud stinking pipes and all the aging hippies and plastic biker wanna be's. Every night the neighbor rips up the 30% grade that is his driveway and then rips up the hill to the turn on the next street. My kids are in bed and we have to close windows so this nimrod won't wake them up. Then the bozo comes home between 11:30 and 1:00 am and wakes us up.
"Loud pipes save lives" Gimme a break, all you Harley riders are just looking for attention. Then there are the early risers and weekenders who go by at 5:00 in the morning on the way to work and wake you up along with the endless parade of greasy pony tails, leather, and tats on the weekends.
I would like to get every one of your addresses so I can dump a load of logs in your driveway while you are sleeping then proceed to cut them up with my chainsaw.
The only saving grace about the neighbor is that we live in an area with park all around and chances are he will hit a deer.
I have gotten like the dog who is conditioned to hate the mailman - a daily irritation and intrusion that just escalates with time. Only I don't bite.
Loud pipes = insecurity
Stupid Harley Davidsons

Wow, thanks! That was a great post to read. When I read the thread title I was planning on commenting about Harleys, but you covered it all. Well done.

I was going to respond but the name "Duane" --- what a derelict. No way I could top what your parents have done to you for your entire life. "Duane" HA-HA-HA!! -
This is America. Simply pay off some local lawmakers to pass a noise ordinance or something to that effect. Afterall, if this guy coming home at 11 is hurting you and your babying of your f***ing children because there is no way they would get used to the sound and sleep through it...then something should really be done to this guy. In fact, while you are at it, get ordinances put against pollution from cars because it might hurt your kiddies' lungs...
God I f***ing hate your generation. You're generation has created so many problems and you are the FIRST to stifle anyone's liberties. You truly are representative of America's worst generation. -
Naw, we could never out-do the self-serving, me-first antics of you BABY boomers, the generation that has successfully eroded civility and thoughtfulness. Spoiled a-holes.

When peak oil really hits, the younger generations aren't going to take too kindly the their excesses and selfishness. Those kids getting woken up at 1am today will be the ones to be reckoned with tommorow.

Agree 100%. Most annoying vehicles ever, they emit ridiculous amounts of noise pollution. Just like Hummers are penis cars, Harleys are penis bikes. They\'re both owned and used by people who are trying to compensate for personal short-comings. They\'re so wrapped up in themselves and trying to drown what they feel they\'re missing (and need) that they don\'t really care about anyone other than themselves. It\'s all about feeding their incomplete and fragile egoes.

Nice rant, but without substance or fact. You hate my generation? You know nothing of me or my neighbor. Here are some facts - I was born in 1965, moved to NC after college and busted my @ss for every penny I made. I worked every summer and during school to make up what my athletic and academic scholarships did not pay.
My neighbor - He is 38 years old, lives with his divorced mother, was dishonorably discharged from the navy after raping a woman, always seems to be between jobs, has fathered a child out of wedlock, does not lift a hand to help his mother, she cuts the grass, rakes leaves, and cleans the gutters while he watches porn or rides his harley.

Stock baffles have a decibel output of about 98dB. Straight pipes with baffles removed - the neighbor - have an output of about 104-106dB.

Shouting and cursing does not make for a good debate, it only makes you look like more of a fool.
They drop $18,000 or more on vehicles that are dangerous, are only used a short time throughout the year, and can transport up to 2 people and little else. Wait, I forgot about sidecars and those stupid suitcase-on-wheels trailers.

Hey, you're an idiot. it's called common courtesy. this guy should be able to ask his neighbor to quiet down and the neighbor should be courtious enough to do so. What's wrong with people these days. It seems like everyone is really self serving and rude.
-
Sounds to me like your neighbor is an @ss, but is still operating his vehicle in a perfectly legal manner. You may want to just ask him (like the mature adult I'm sure you are) to lay off the throttle if he's coming home late because it wakes your children. Man up and work this out with your neighbor instead of complaining on a running website.
-
Agree 100%. If my car made as much noise as a Harley, I'd be getting pulled over and ticketed on a weekly basis. Why do they get a pass on the noise pollution aspect of their bikes?
-
I don't understand why every other vehicle on the road has to comply with noise emmission standards while the harleys are allowed to make such a f***ing racket. It's all about raising the ire of people like me, too. Just like children who find something to annoy their parents for the sake of annoying their parents. Harley riders are just juvenile.

His loud-ass pipes are almost certainly not legal for street use. In fact, these straight pipes come in a box that says 'for track use only,' because they don't meet the noise restrictions.
For some weird reason, lots of bikers (both Harley riders and crotch rocket pilots) immediately swap out their stock exhaust for these anti-social noise weapons. -
Have you ever thought about talking to him? It may get you farther than you think.

No -- see you c***, I know everything about you. Because, as someone stated above, you boomers are all the same. You don't give a damn about anyone but yourself. I won't even bother getting into all the large-scale shortcomings that your generation has decided to ignore so your children and grandchildren (me) will have to worry about fixing because you didn't care to sacrafice the time/effort/or moeny to just not screw things in the first place (ie -- the environment, the middle east, the deficit, civil rights, social security...)
So let's take you as an individual: "a guy who claims to have worked so hard for every penny" therefore, you have the right to trounce all over this guy's vehicle decision because of character (I agree rape is bad -- but isn't it the Navy's job to punish him?). You're just a passive-aggressive pussy like many people in your generation who don't want to approach your problem -- you want everone to get on your side so you can just outlaw anything that isn't to your liking. So you make character agrguments beause your shit doesn't stink and, therefore, you know what's best for everyone else. Afterall, if the case for against your rapist neighbor isn't enough based on character -- let's talk about how retarded motorcycles are in first place. Right -- because shit that is retarded should be made illegal (K-Fed is still outta prison, last I checked).
So how about you take care of your own individual problem. personally, I think you should just get used to it. Kids grow up living next to train tracks and still manage to grow up alright. However, if your neighbor has illegally altered his bike then you have every right to go to him (I wonder if you've spoken with him about this and tried to handle things through a brief conversation) and ask for him to fix the issue. If he doesn't, then you have every right to go to officials about this.
God, why can't boomers solve any f***ing problems? -
Sounds like somebody has a case of the MUNdays
-
Are people born in '65 considered boomers? I thought Boomers were born in the 50's. Oops, just looked it up and it comprises people born from '46-'64. So this guy is just outside the limit.

So there's a law covering this situation, file a complaint. Why rant on the the Internet?

I respect your right to complain about intrusive noise and rude behavior. Passing judgement on what others should or should not spend their money and time on merely makes you look as much a self-centered twit as your neighbor.
