So, we all know what HD's, GS's, Gixxers and CBR's sound like. Some folks can pick theirs out of a crowd. All of us know we've heard a sweeeeeet sounding bike and locked onto it's rythem, memorized and lusted after it. Or maybe I just need more "ME" time.
So go on then, list that bike FIRST and then tell the tale afterwards. Here, I'll even start it off in the next post. :thumb:

We were leaving a HD-fest when one roared to life, and burbled away, a little note of a cb750 whir from up front. Loved it. Absolutely awesome sound.
OK, you get the idea! O0
I Havent Heard It In Person ., But The Most Amazing , Powerful Headturning , Noise Ive Heard Is The MTT Y2k . Only 185,000 Bucks!
That Sounds Like A Jet FIghter , Suppose Thats The Bell Ranger Turbine Engine ... Mhmmmmm The Winner!

I really like the liquid cooled L-twins with an aftermarket exhaust. I guess I'm thinking Superhawk, RC, TL, SV
Great rumble, but also a little more polished and rythmic sounding than a 45 degree air cooled v-twin (ie. HD)
SV1000 with a nice aftermarket exhaust, heard a few ride by the other day. 8)
Indian with S&S motor... 6 foot straight pipes..... need earplugs on that one, for shure :thumb:
My friends dad BMW K1200S...thing is AMAZING
Pretty much any Ducati with a dry clutch sporting a full Termignoni system.

You guys are all crazy. Alpha hit the nail on the head... Dry clutch big ass L-twin with a nice exhaust system.

There is a guy I ride with who traded his FZ1 in for a Tuono. His Tuono came with a full Ti Arrow exhaust system and a custom CF airbox. From idle to redline it sounds like it wants to rip someone's torso in half and eat their intestines. And then there are the power wheelies...
TL1000S w/full Yosh hands down
1098s with the full termi at about 6k rpm........................( where the hell is the drooling icon!!! )
call me crazy... any old yamaha fzr :icon_mrgreen: I used to have a fz600, and it sounded SOO nice... the fzR600's and the fzr1000's just sound awesome to me :thumb: (I would say ducati but I actually want to be able to afford one of these one day!)
I will be able to afford a ducati ( maybe not a 1098 ) if I have to sell my soul to do so ( read: re-enlist. ) :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
GS500 O0 ...
With pipe ... maybe Srinath flange and wileyco with that funky ass baffle I cooked up for someone on this list ... Or heck a carbon fiber can like a micron.
Cool.
Srinath.
:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Good call Srinath
Super Hawk 996 with Jardines.
Rolling on the throttle in any gear with the front end getting light.
1982 Yamaha XZ550 Vision with full porcelan Jardine pipes. Just barely legal at 114dbs.
But, you can't really beat the sound of a Norton WFO on the banks of Daytona.
AMA Superbike Ducs on decel into turn 2 at Sears Point, and accelerating out of the same turn, are pretty sweet, though.
Home Theatre......Dolby Digital......REALLY, REALLY LOUD.....eyes closed.....Star Wars Phantom Menace......Pod Racer Scene. Always gets my heart rate up.
My bike sounds exactly like Sebulba's pod. For what it is worth.
can't pick one...
air cooled v's...by far Vincent Black Shadow.
liquid v's...sweetest would be VFR750R, meanest would be any S&S with straights.
I4's...gotta go with FZ600 with a full system. Just sick.
The most head-turning bike noise, to me, though, is someone racking out an 1800 Goldwing. I jiz a little every time I hear someone bounce one of those badasses off the limiter.

My TL had that noise. I really think they used a big water-cooled twin to do that.
I'm now fairly partial to a GS with lunchbox and wileyco CF can :icon_lol: :icon_lol: :thumb: :thumb:
