Had a Sportster for about 8,9 years with V&H pipes, not ridiculously loud. On long rides the rumble would fatigue the brain a bit, but FF helmet and ear plugs helped a lot. With the CB and same ear protection I find myself thinking out in expanses of the west...if it weren't for that faint whirring noise coming from the engine area, the only thing I would hear is the buffeting of the wind. With this bike you better like your own company on long trips! : )
