[quote="instigator"]I'd say be considerate.... get on the bike, start it up and ride away. Don't leave it idling away, 'warming up' like most retards do. Just a bit of consideration for others. And yes... this is regardless of whether your exhaust is legal or not. I've had diesel cars sitting outside my house before and they're irritating as fuck. Treat others the way you wish to be treated.
Absolutely in agreement with this sensible response. Came on this forum to assess general attitude to motorbike noise nuisance. Our neighbour's son 'warms up' his superbike, idling it for 3-5 minutes in the street daily, 7am. I wondered if this technically necessary. I appreciate it's a cheaper, fun, seasonal transport method, making his minimum wage workday more exciting.
Other, aggressive responses suggest use of high risk, high octane sport bikes are unsuitable for modern suburbs as us plebs are still all crammed together as it is. My partner has been pulled up for hand washing his car outside his home on the roadside, often, when he owned a property in a genteel suburb. Genteel people think you are bringing down the neighbourhood lol. Now majority not living in country hovels, but cramped suburban settings, class rears its head, don't you think? In the old days, behaviour was excluded by posh ppl paying constabulary forces to keep riff raff out. Now it's pricing that works. None of us would survive a second in rich countries with much stricter council bylaws than UK. Wonder what happens to social renegades there lol. Anyone on here experienced the wrath of German or Swiss bylaws, I'm curious. Anyway, being English, retired partner rages when awoken daily by white trash, I wear earplugs so I don't hear nuthin, including partner's door banging & nobody says anything to avoid war with neighbours lol. |

No, it's not. He's either thick, or deluded, or a sociopath, or a combination of all three. He can get on and ride away at low revs without doing any harm to the bike, but at some cost to his ego.
That reminds me, I need to order a baffle for my Enfield's rather caddish new exhaust. (Orders) ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Do you commute on your 2-smoke track bike at 7am every day? ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Sounds like nothing will ever come of it. Guess I'll just start it on the street and let the waste of my council tax money commence.
I know I don't have to start it on the street but it just removes any oportunity for them to have ANY valid evidence
forgot to say, it's a rented property so they could possibly try to raise it with the landlord if they knew that; is there a way they could find that out?
Either way, moving onto the road before I start it will nullify any action - as shown in the link, the police will just conclude it's a road bike with a legal exhaust. |
Of course you do realise he has posted your address and made you a target for Byklaff scum by making it seem you have something worth stealing, which you do.... |

If the bike is as loud as the bitching neighbours say it is then every byklaff within a couple of miles already knows about it. |
