Bike sounds you hate.....

[Bigjawa]

Following in from the other thread, what sounds get on your wick.

For me it's 125 four strokes with stupid earsplitting exhausts, and because the fuelling is screwed up so much, the things are so slow they take ages to get out of earshot.

[Le_Fromage_Grande]

Here we go.....

Two strokes without expansion chambers
Four stroke twins
Four stroke singles
Wankels
V4 four strokes
Square 4 four strokes

I think that's covered it

I think it fucking has and all.

That metal and plastic scrapping against tarmac noise.

[Yorick]

Big V twins. Hate following Bob on his 1299 Pan.
But Lee's V4 is nice to follow

The sudden silence from a high revving two stroke....

We always kept a finger on the clutch lever. It generally happened when you shut off at end of a straight.

[Mr. Dazzle]

17 year old scrotes on 125s with beancans used to be the worst. I heard one that trumps even that the other day though, a 4 stroke scooter on a beancan. CVT gearing means the revs rise/fall very little and its just a fucking stupid drone. I've heard more sonorous tumble driers.

[Rockburner]

Anything (except maybe an old british single) at 6am on a Sunday morning going twice the limit through any given village.

A middle aged fat bloke on a sportsbike with an Akra is perfectly acceptable however

That’s lucky on here!!

That clicking of the starter when you press the go button.

[Newey]

The noise of really worn chain and sprockets when rolling the bike backwards out of the garage.

[Newey]

That thud when forget to take off the disk lock.

[bevvo]

The noise of a fucked sprag clutch when you prod the starter...

[Yorick]

My pal hates that. His KTM enduro is kick start and often after 10th prod, we all just flick our leccy starts and he wishes he had one

They're a good thing,they hide the death rattles of the actual engine.
