Thumbs down Why does Hollywood do this to bikes???

Why do they make a damn fine sounding twin sound like a screaming and (imo) bland IL4? SIGH! Here, Yes man had a hypermotard on... WHY!?

Its happened in a lot of films, she's the man, Oceans 12... and many other films im sure. Sigh. So annoying.




Should be done like this (from 1.20 onwards). Mmmm.

There's is a part where he mounts the pavement and it momentarily sounds like a twin.

But that's very poor
