Everyday I am aggravated and disturbed by millennials on sport bikes and/or baby boomers on V twins with uncapped open exhausts that rev the sh#t out of their engines with no regard for any of the people around them.
Just yesterday a group of us had ridden down the coast for a coffee at one of our favourite donut shops.
When we arrived there were several of the "straight pipes" types already there; you know who I mean without mentioning a brand name.
They left shortly after with constant cranking of the throttle and then blasted away down the road winding the V-twin engines up tight. I don't know who they thought they were impressing, but it wasn't anyone within hearing range.

Unfortunately, this type of total disregard of common courtesy and the "I'm gonna do what I want to" attitude of these slime balls ruins the image for those of us who are trying to project a responsible, law abiding persona to the non-riding public. I try my best to ignore these idiots, but it is hard when they blast by you doing twice the legal speed limit at 120 decibels.
