Perhaps now that i've had some time to really appreciate the sound of the Sarachu system, i should rewrite that.
It's not loud like a harley davidson. It isn't awesomely deep like HDs are. That sound comes from piss pour cam timing, large bores, and massive amounts of gasoline being fired out the tail pipe in both the burned and unburned variety. But in terms of decibel level, you can hear a HD from halfway across town. it's loud, and booming.
The sarachu system is not.
It is loud and raspy when needled. people behind you don't appreciate it, even fellow HD riders. It's obnoxiously loud. It makes your teeth rattle and your inner ear buzz. Much like the HD, you can hear an Sarachu Equipped EX500 from across town, but it sounds like an Army of pissed off hornets.
But down low, going slow and low, when you're just cruising through town, and not going like a bat out of hell down the canyon roads, it's an absolute privilege to listen to. It's a soft rumble that you feel in your throat. Truly like the RC51's long lost little brother, or the Ducati's overseas 2nd cousin. Just thinking about it makes me cry a little. it really is a beautiful sound.
so like i said, although it's as loud as a harley, it doesn't sound like one.
