I can often hear cars hammering out of my village, bikes too but a lot of cars!
I took the baffle out of my can yesterday as I just fancied a bit of eargasm hoonery and to be honest after just a 30mile trip (with ear plugs) I came home and put it back in. Sounds beautiful on acceleration but at constant rpms is just a drone and by the end of that short ride my ears were ringing for a good half hour
I think most loud pipes are for the 'look at me' effect. What they don't realise is that most of those that look are thinking 'what a w*nker'
It's the smaller bikes that have suddenly become mega loud, you know the ones you can still hear a mile away, that are extremely annoying.

That's why Harleys only fire once every lamppost.
Austria is imposing a 95db limit on motorcycles on 100km of Tyrolean roads. The fine is 220 euros. Cars are excluded from this ruling.
don't mock the Fiat 500, they really can shift if you modify them right.
