Depends on engine arrangement no?
I guess that was my question. Is it an overall thing, or is what you hear most the intake and the exhaust?
Guy on a Thrux was next to me this morning and his bike sounded so much beefier - which I mainly put down to the after market exhausts. So then I wondered if it was the same for all bikes.

I'd seen people talk about that (or snorkel removal at least) on triumphrat.
Basically I'm trying to work out whether all bikes sound like sewing machines without a fat 'zorst or just mine.
I'd like to get a better note, but without more idle noise as I don't want to annoy my neighbors - and I already have a disadvantage due to the acoustics of where the bike is parked.
I've also discovered another cheap(ish) exhaust idea by using shorty mufflers. Keeps the original vibe but shortends the back a little... don't know how it would work with a full rear 'guard though.

Might be a dumb question, but does the actual engine of all motorbikes sound a bit naff? with just the exhaust giving the nice sound?

I can't think of anything OTP. But if you could weld there might be options.
Two of something like this with a section of scafold welded in between. You'd need to think of how to improve the fixings...
As cagimaha said, strength of fixing is important. But also it needs to not be so much hassle that you won't use it.
I wonder if you could fill the pole with something that would fuck up a cutter? a loose rubber hose filled with tyre sealant?

speakers
I can't recommend a particular set, but I would definitely recommend ceiling speakers for the bathroom and kitchen. They will mainly come in white, some can also be painted. It's unlikely that you'll ever get full on amazballs audio fidelity - but with an extractor fan or shower going, so what?

Is that why the BBC article says the daughter was fined, when actually the fine is made out to him? Unless he named his daughter after him...?
Not evidence whatsoever*, but my hunch is the inspectors saw him from across the street. They decided he looked like the sort of doggy spiv who'd try and hustle naive festival goers and acted accordingly.
*other than the photo showing his daughter who being small next to the table could have easily been missed among the throng of people.

I liked;
An Italian friend said it was yet another example of Britian’s addiction to pointless rules and regulations.
Italy of course being one of those super deregulated countries free of all pointless bureaucracy.

The story has caused a great deal of controversy in the office.
My view that the law should be applied equally did not go down well.

@Lebowski - it's a story about the serial entrepreneur Elon Musk claiming that he has been given permission for a "hyperloop" from NYC to Washington DC - the hyperloop is a really fast train in a vacuum.
There is some controversy over whether he's actually been given permission as some officials have denied it.
Better?
Let me know if you need any more info on the article.
It'll just have to be both of them then.
