My take- I hear chain saws, wood chippers, weed wackers, lawn mowers, as well as bro-dozers and fart-cans driving by- etc- so there shouldn't be a moral judgement as to 'why' there is noise- as long as it is relatively brief and infrequent.
That being said- down the street from me there is a farm that for the last few years has been doing weddings / parties in their barn that we can hear music in our yard.
So- my wife already said- if the 'authorities' come knocking at our door about this- she will say something about that...
To be fair- I live on a few acres, so it's not like I am in a townhouse development. Yea- I know sound travels...but for the few minutes at a time in an afternoon..they can deal with it.
That's excellent, PD. I've considered how I can achieve the same 'exhaust evacuation' set-up in my little garage. Not that I want to do 'tuning' as such, but just so that I can perhaps run one of the 'bikes occasionally inside the garage (in winter?) if necessary. I have a 'soil pipe' (sewer pressure outlet) running inside at the back of the garage, so I could tap into that. All I need are the flexible hoses, and a large, boxed extractor fan.
I'll be interested to see how you get on with your set-up.
