some crappy scooter with neons and a sound system blasting out techno :rollin

Hard to miss really

Exhaust noise wins hands down, no need for speakers

I have one speaker on my bike.

It cost me £125 and helps to amplify the best sound that money can buy.

here it is:

I agree, I have a MIVV Titanium though. I leave the music at home with my guitars :guitar

When people stare at me, I flip up the front of my helmet, give them a maniacal stare, followed by a slow wave. I've had cars starte to reverse away from me when I do that!! :lol :lol

Post by: darrsi on 12 June 2013, 05:26:45 pm: I'm really not a fan of the idea of listening to music on the bike, i wanna know what's around me at all times and hearing other vehicles is a major part of it.

Post by: Deefer666 on 13 June 2013, 07:17:49 am: I've seen a few bikes with sound systems on.... TBH I am not a fan as I always think you end up looking like one of those chavs that insists on playing music from their phone hanging round their neck. The sound quality is always shite and you look a bit of a prick.... I use an MP3 and earphones that way I don' t inflict my musical taste on others.... in my experience old grannies don't like Combichrist at 110Db

Post by: Dead Eye on 13 June 2013, 11:01:35 am: The Goldwings are insane... I swear they have 10x as many buttons and controls as my car and bike combined!!
