I read that Harley salesmen are instructed to purposely make sure test drive routes go by lots of reflective windows so the potential buyer sees themselves and thinks they're a big badass on that hog.

Also, vehicles have intrinsic value beyond their badge. Basically, are you buying a bike because it's a good value for the performance that it offers? Or are you a dumbass boomer who watched Easy Rider 500 times?

Are you mad that people buy Harleys because of the name and are sold on 'hey it's a Harley' and want people to know you're mad about this fact? Is that what this is? Congrats.

It's pretty rare for a dealership to allow test drives. Usually at best they'll have occasional "demo days" where they'll have a demo bike or two of specific models they want to push. They'll also spend some time chatting you up before allowing you a test drive to weed out the "Aw, Hell yeah" guys and inexperienced riders. The mirror thing sounds like an urban myth. Sure Harley is all about selling an image, but they don't want some mid life crisis dad laying down a bike while watching his refection even on the rare chance they let him take it out in the first place. Test's have shown that loud bikes being more safe is bullshit. Pedestrians and people trying to sleep can hear the gently caress out of them, but it turns out that people focusing on driving with the radio and car noise going on pretty much don't notice until they feel the thump. Personally I do whatever I can to make my bikes as quiet as possible. Why would I want to advertise my presence to a cop sitting in his speed trap six blocks across town?

They are purposely louder than they would be just running the engine, yes. Assholes have to be loud. It's how they signal to others that they're huge assholes.

In the UK we have a fuckin plague of delivery guys on lovely scooters. They tune them to make more noise to show off their third hand stolen 40mph shitbox. And because they're all ratlike 19 year olds who don't need a licence they're all terrible drivers. (Don't use delivery apps, the drivers suck but the techbro scum running the companies are worse)

OP, if your concern is that these motorcyclists won't be able to hear their radios since their exhausts are so loud, please do not fret. Technology has made it that you can fit really loud stereos on bikes, loud enough to be heard over the exhaust. Since I, too, absolutely love the loving Eagles, i am grateful the bikers choose to share.

Harley-Davidson had a mini Volkswagen emissions scandal of their own where they were handing out emission defeat devices after the bikes went to dealers. I don't know how you manage to make a motorcycle that can't pass EPA emissions but Harley-Davidson did it.

They need to be loud to drown out the realization that you are a fat middle aged loser who's wife left him for a man with a much larger penis.
