Not to mention those bikes sometimes have stereos just as loud and obnoxious as those mustangs now too. They're the whole package!

Don't you understand?

Making a lot of noise is the only way they can be noticeable, surely they couldn't do something like wear a high vis vest or take their own safety seriously just in general.

Clearly the only option is to be even louder and more annoying...

Yeah when I rode my solid black Ninja 250 with stock pipes around I got run over like fifteen times a mile. If it doesn't sound like they're blasting at the quarry the cage drivers just ain't gonna notice you.
