Well It doesn't sit there going:
Potato potato potato at idle either.

It has a distinctive Thump thump thump...

And a 6" cannon with 3" tube

I can't wait till the NOS is plumbed in

Best thing about a Harley..

Is the Efficient conversion of Fuel into Heat and noise without the associated hassle of Horsepower.

Mine very efficiently produces 120H.P. and will still maintain its value,long after any saki sucker is in the wreckers

Funny quoting the Noddy books as justification for nicknames- remember the naughty gollywogs? Ms Blyton has long been judged as very politically incorrect.
The term 'Mister Plod' is a mildly insulting term for police based on Noddy and BigEars' nemesis who was portrayed as officious, self-righteous and stupid.
I much prefer the good old Aussie term 'The Jacks'.

Loudest thing I have riden was a 98, 620 KTM with a Megaphone pipe. The idea was as the exhaust gases expanded they would be drawn out the pipe by the constantly expanding exhaust pipe. It just got bigger all the way to the back where it was about 3 inches.

My oldies recon they could hear me coming from the center of town. We lived 3km out of the center of town. God knows how I was never defected.

Happy Days.

But it still won't be able to go around a corner...
