Serious question. Why ride a motorbike so fast, without being able to hear approaching traffic due to the loud noise coming from the engine.

I've just let my dog out for a pee, only to hear the motorbike in question speed past, doing what must've been 50mph in a 30mph zone. The rider is/was dressed totally in black leather, with the rear light looking not very bright.😯 I could hear it going over the hill about a minute after it passed me.🤔

Have you attempted to report it, although I know not where you would do that.

So if you followed this person in your car back to where they live. Then put your car stereo on full blast with your doors and windows open so as to create a similar amount of noise as their bike generates.
I wonder if they would think it was acceptable.
