      Even worse with motorcycles. Seems like most people own motorcycles specifically for “fun” (waste fuel and make noise).

      And just generally being loud. Even regular cars can be loud if you drive like an asshole.

        Motorcycles I can kind of understand. Some people believe that making their cycle loud makes it more “visible” to other drivers, helping to prevent accidents. I don’t think there’s been any studies to prove this, but I can understand why people buy into it.

    Contrarianism. Being anti-“Popular Thing” just for the sake of being anti-“Popular Thing” marks you out as having no thoughts worth hearing out.
