    That's the funny thing though.... Even if I did do that it wouldnt wake him up. Ok, so it's a wee bit louder than a normal FXR but its still an air cooled 4 stroke!!

    Look, I'm willing to ride scoot down. A litre of Yoshimura goodness, topped off with a little less filling that is decently acceptable. I can bring some tire smoke too...
    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.

    Just ignore the cock. Hopefully he'll come rushing out to give you a hard time when he gets to his wits' end one morning and then you'll have a good opportunity to headbutt him.

    It has to be a piss take.

    It's not like you do race starts in the basement is it ? (Then I might understand lol)

    The poo will have your DNA.

    Get someone else to do it.

    If fact, why not get a lift to work and invite some niosey visitors to come and REV a LOUD 'Hi' to you.

    I guess the sound must reverberate around the basement quite a bit. Sometimes when I start my ute in an underground carpark, cars nearby have their alarms set off but the rumble. I think it sound awesome : but I guess other people might not think so
    At least they had the balls to sign it. U can now go talk to them face to face and explain to them that the bike is stock and that it's the basement that is tricking their ears
    Otherwise, leave a note on their car. If it's a guy, write "Dear Madam" and write some stuff about while 'she' probably doesn't intentionally want to pollute the environment by driving a 1500kg lump of metal around unnecessarily with most of the petrol being used being to propel the car and not the person. It's Actual Pollution!

    That's what I think but I would have to work with them as the security to the garage is pretty decent.... It's a joke best served on 1st April or something though, dont ya think!

    Yeah it is pretty loud in the basement, still though its only for about 30 secs at the longest!

    This is when I should be honest and admit that it is pretty loud for an FXR. Almost no engine noise but induction noise is huge. It has a 250 carb on and it has no air box....
