^^^^ Seriously True ^^^^ To top that off every time I rode with AC/DC playing I got speeding tickets, go figure...... Oh and it is really really nice to hear strange sounds coming from the bike before it breaks
Oh man. that last one. i know the feeling. Flywheel nut backed out and destroyed 4 valves.
I transplanted an EVO1100 motor into it (single spark) but cant get it to run right. ;\

Found out the hard way myself 25 years ago on an old Suzuki Kanatuna 600. The bolt for the rear brake brace fell out and I never heard it. Went for a gentle back brake drag at 75mph on a freeway when the brace slipped, the rotor rolled forward and locked the rear brake up. Got my attention. It was the last time I rode with tunes.......

He-Man, what kind of helmet are you using? It may be playing a significant role.
I just picked up a Shark and the wind noise is considerably less compared to my HJC.

I was rocking the really long curly hair, jeans torn up with spandex under them and a bandana.... God wtf was I thinking? Clue:
I looked like a rockstar and could not play a kazoo, Still worked for my purposes though
