as I said, its not the noise, loud pipes really don't bother me, but a harley that I wasn't sitting on never sent a vibration thru my body, its the inaudible vibrations from car stereos that are set up to send earth tremors

As you can imagine, living in Dorchester I've heard my fair share. I like to roll down my window and crank NPR. They never get it but all the other drivers laugh.

Yesterday I was sitting at a light and a kid in a beat Honda had the tunes cranked loud enough to be loud under a helmet with ear plugs. He did not seem to like having a Triumph triple being revved next to his open window - go figure....
