I'm tireed of such idiocy waking me at 3am each weekend night. Town or rural - doesn't sem to make any difference. I think you already know the answer to your woes.

Industrial deafness is often the cause. Can't hear the higher frequencies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no intention of growing old...ageing yes...not a thing I can do about that....growing old.....I certainly hope not. There is a difference. I've known old people at 45 and young people at 70 years old. When you are sitting there at 85 years old in your slippers having a warm cup of hot chocolate at 6pm you'll hear me going past on my bike at 85 years old hopefully with some firm bodied bar girl pressed up hard against me.

Damrongsak Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 There are loud bikes that play music and noisy bikes that sound like crap. Depends on the bike and the rider playing it. As far as noise goes, there's nothing like an outlaw sprint car race. Oval dirt track, maybe a dozen little open-wheel cars with 800 horsepower V-8s and straight pipes. I took my boy to a race once and we were running late. As we approached the bleachers, the race began from a running start. The sound just about knocked the boy down!

Certainly, Thai people seem immune to it, mostly. You're never going to stop loud exhausts. They are exciting and give bikes that 'go faster' feel, especially if you can't afford a bike that goes faster! This is a regular thread. There was one like it a few months ago. It really does bring all the grumpy old men out! As I might have said in the last such thread, one is usually exposed to a loud exhaust sound for only a few seconds, as the offending vehicle goes by. I think it says a lot about what's going on in your heads if a few seconds of noise result in hours of complaining! I have to disagree, with thousands and thousands of bikes, it is a steady constant barrage of sound... Fortunately for some of us old geezers, I can just pop out the old hearing aids a Carry on..?

idman Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Loud exhaust on a small bike, 125cc's and smaller, ridden by a young Thai bloke, probably just making up for his lack of size in his manhood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
