Default "Air Force" bike blow-dryers... any good?

I'm not considering the huge 8hp monster but do wonder about the smaller 4hp or 1.7hp portable versions or even the little hand-held. Anyone here compaired these or can someone offer some advise.

Use a leaf blower. IMFUO, works better, and you can use it on the yard when you're not riding. (Or the OL can use it on the yard, whilst you are out riding )

Ok, then, call it a "Bike Blower" vs "Leaf Blower". JUST don't crank it up til after 8 AM if'n you have those kinda rules. But then, if they have a 'noise rule', are you stuck with STOCK pipes?
Harleys and Condos, Hmmmm. Isn't that sort o' like Mercedes and Trailerhouses? Bwahahaha J/K Ranger

Everyone needs a shop-vac, so go buy one and put the hose on the exhaust side. Ray
