I guess you can almost consider Harleys quiet.....

Sounds like crap to me.

 

Exhaust - not too bad
Engine - sounds like a bucket-o-bolts

 

Sounds like he forgot to put oil in it. Ha Ha. My roadstar was the same engine almost and never had one little tick to it.

 

My wife's Vstar sounds the same way, it's almost like your running it without oil. Their Vtwins are so noisy that Yamaha had to put out a factory letter stating that all their motorcycles are noisy and it's normal. When I get into discussions with friends about HD's having a lot of valve train noise, I tell them as long as it doesn't sound like my ol' Vstar 1100 it's quiet as far as I'm concerned.

 

I'm still trying to figure out the point of the video.

 

There's four minutes of my time I'll never get back.

 

I turned it off after a few seconds.
