Personally, I think the Desmosedici is the Best Sounding Bike Ever..... If I am eating Breakfast at a Restaurant renowned for its Motorcycle Cliental, Im certainly not going to Bitch about the noise, This has got to be the Stupidest thread I've ever come across, is your life so boring that you need to come on the net & complain about loud noises.... Really?? If you want to point out loud bikes, start pointing the finger at the HD crowd, Loud for the sake of being noticed, of course they would probably get off on a thread like this....
