SO youve gone n bought that icon of the road - V4 VFR ...but why does it sound quieter than a sewing machine in a boiler room...?
The daftness of the Honda policy of super muffling all their bikes was brought home to me when i took Zigs (take a bow sir !
)new Hornet for a spin...i trundle out on to Sahftesbury Ave...10 yards on im approaching Wardour St on the right, when blimey, the ricksahw cycle thing starts to pull across me..WTF ??? i fumble for unfamilair brake lever and just stop in time, the geezer did nt HEAR me did he, that sort of thing never happens to me on my loud ZX6, and i Know you sv bods with a loud can never get it either...
You cant legislate for the senses people use habitually , and these new bikes are dangerous.
My worry is for the future, the eco bikes to come are gonna be almost silent, and i bet the number of accidents goes up two - fold....
