RE: Will my neighbors hate me?
Bragz: Several recent medical studies have proven that sleeping too much is harmful to your health.......therefore firing up a TC88 in your driveway at 5 am is not only helpful it is downright a public service and is bona fide evidence just how much you really care about your neighbors! If there are a lot of childern around then you should definitely go Stage 1 as it not only tests their hearing and reflexes as you approach your driveway....it helps their parents live longer by raising heart rate and blood pressure.
My housing development has 37 homes and there are 4 other caring "helpers" like me firing up Harley Davidsons at all hours to prevent these helpless narcoleptics from slipping off into an early and untimely death. God bless you and yours for caring

Here's a suggestion - Stage it so that your neighbors see you bite the head off a chicken while standing out in your front yard. [:@] (Hamsters work, too, but they don't give the visual effect that a flopping chicken does, nor are they visable at distance). Follow up by giving your neighbors a vacant stare. If successful, the last thing your neighbors will complain about is your motorcycle! [

I wouldn't worry about the neighbors. After a year or two of coming home at 3 AM, beer bottles clanking in the trash can, and the echo of the 22 rifle they will get tried and move - mine did!

I have a Dyna with Vance & Hines Straight Shots ,and all last summer I would ride my bike into work at 2:30 AM 2 or 3 times a week . Never had a single complaint from any of the neighbors.

I never worry what my neighbors think of me or the noise that my Road King makes when I leave or arrive.Never had a complaint but one even I left and there was a cop in my neighborhood and heard me,he caught upto me at a stop ssign and he got out,here I thought he pull me over for speeding in a residential area but no, he wanted to see my ride and asked me he was curious why I cranked it up by my house at 1:00 am!I told him there were some cats on the road so I had to scare them away!He laugh and says "yep thats a good reason".When it comes to Harleys here the cops are cool its people that ride crotch rockets and their atitude.

Like said before, let your cycle warm up for a few min and then take it easy on your way out of your neigbor hood. I live about a 1/4 mile or so down the street from a busy road , and once in a while I'll take off from the stop sign and open up 1st & 2nd gear just to let the neighbors around my house know how nice I really am My wife say's she can still here me several blocks away.

I like this thread!
I leave around 6:30 in the morning. I fire her up as I'm backing her out of the driveway and let the garage door close. I take off easily and try not to make much noise. After I get to the main street I Open her Up a bit! But My neighbors wont be affected by that.
When coming home, however, I come in easily and roll into my garage. I then blip it while in the garage just to give them a taste of what it could be and shut her off.
I'm sure they like me much more than the metric bikes that are tearing up and down the street, over reving and doing wheelies and wheel stands.
