Message:: [QUOTE="Numisnewbiest, post: 3599672, member: 99613"]I have a neighbor like that - I counted once, and he sat at the end of his driveway and revved the **** out of it 14 times before taking off. All his idiot biker buddies do the same thing, too. This is a nice, quiet, residential 25 MPH neighborhood (well, it used to be quiet). And he's got no license. And he's a drunk. And he's had four DUIs without consequence and keeps on biking, because the local cops are his buddies. Three weeks ago it caught up with him. Naturally, he's way too cool to wear a helmet, which nobody cares about, but he put his teen daughter on the back without a helmet, too...and almost killed both of them. She's home now, using a walker, but she was in a coma for three days...broken neck, broken leg, broken arm, broken hand, etc. He's still in the hospital, busted up from the neck down. The whole neighborhood is hoping he loses the use of his throttle hand. I had an older Honda motorcycle years ago, and always felt guilty for starting it up at around 6:15 in the morning to go to work, and it wasn't even loud. It had the stock muffler setup. I never revved it, and I always got out of the driveway as quickly and quietly as I could. I'll never understand how anyone over the age of 12 thinks it's so cool to sit and rev a motorcycle.[/QUOTE]
