Hmmm... Sounds decidedly flatulent to me!
Find a good 70's, 80's Ducati twin with a reverse cone megaphone. Now
THAT

My 120 Jota had twin stainless "silencers" and sounded like Armageddon. To my ears it was spine tingling, much more so than a bevel twin! Each to their own though!

brimo, nice Dr. Strangelove pic in your avatar.

One of my all time fav movies. Used to watch it on the college campus in the 70s every week for a dollar with all my drunk friends. Good times!!
Back to bike pics.

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."
CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

The bike pictured above was the concept bike. The V7 Racer available in the U.S. doesn't have the chrome tank or the exhaust wrap.

The Europeans get the same bike, but with a chromed plastic tank.

^^ And a ridiculously kitsch parody it looks too
(Not just Europe, Australia also get the chrome-look plastic tank).

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I had one of 'em too. Conti mufflers and all
.
Never had any trouble whatsoever with the electrics (Nippon Denso gauges worked really well
). Mine used to have a semi-regular party trick of ripping the rear sprocket bolts out of the hub. The hub was always fine just sucked the thread clean off the bolts.
Here's the best pic I've got of it: Me threatening it yet again with a number 12 fixing stick...
But I'm being indulgent. Back to the Italian exotica.......
