Title: Couldn't help laughing at him....
Post by: Stig / Major Tom on May 04, 2019, 12:17:33 PM

HD rider stuck in traffic on the street in front of where I'm sitting with my coffee.
LOUD pipes and even louder music blaring from his dash.
Sorry, I just burst out laughing at him.
One of the town policeman behind him, we both just shook our heads and chuckled..
(Since this town is a tourist destination - the police don't hassle many)

PS- Yeah the HD rider saw me laughing.

 Yeah, i dont get the loud music thing. I understand the "Loud pipes save lives" arguement.. i am on the fence with it, but that is me. The music blaring is just rude, especially since there are new many new bluetooth helmet options for listening that are not being inflicted on others. I does solidify the bias against cruiser bikes (HD).
Disclaimer:  Yes, I was a loud 70s` music lover and inflicted my music on the world. I was a teenager, and as such, i had no regard for anyone else. Now I still listen to the same music (Physical Graffitti )when i ride my bicycle or the walking machine, but i have ear buds so my wife doesnt laugh at me.
