>Maybe now my fellow riders can agree that their motorbikes are a bit too damn loud, and tone it down.

It would be awesome if the rest of us didn't have to rely on the possible good sense of a motorcyclist and, instead, noise pollution laws were strictly enforced. I highly doubt any Harley out there is even capable of operating below the legal limit in CA of 80dbA.

I literally feel pain in my ears every time a Harley pass by. I wish I could sue for damage all of those, because I'm pretty sure that's what's happening

All Harleys that are sold comply with the legal limit. It's the owners that put on third-party exhausts that cause the noise.
