You'd think after Americans bailed this shit hole company out twice they'd have something to show for it.
Just obnoxious bikes that somehow have a slower 0-60 than a 1982 civic while being louder than a mustang with the muffler removed
Not to mention those bikes sometimes have stereos just as loud and obnoxious as those mustangs now too. They're the whole package!
Don't you understand?
Making a lot of noise is the only way they can be noticeable, surely they couldn't do something like wear a high vis vest or take their own safety seriously just in general.
Clearly the only option is to be even louder and more annoying...

Yeah when I rode my solid black Ninja 250 with stock pipes around I got run over like fifteen times a mile. If it doesn't sound like they're blasting at the quarry the cage drivers just ain't gonna notice you.
You forgot the oil leaks.
Hey what's the difference between a Harley and a Hoover?
Location of the dirt bag.
Being loud is an advantage to thei riders though
There's a difference between being loud enough to be noticeable and making shit tons of noise for absolutely fuck all reason
My former articulation is ambiguous and I didn't convey what I truly meant: I fucking hate loud bikes! And for those assholes that drive them, being obnoxiously loud is one of the points why they drive those things.
I did not mean that bikes need to be loud to be recognized.
