I am so glad that I don't line across from a turd....and I don't mean the guy with the bike. Have you tried to talk with him and be kind?

Sounds like a good idea or maybe set the sprinklers to come on at that time with a few of the heads miss alined.

Loud Neighbor Noise
 

I don’t get it when people are blatantly inconsiderate of neighbors & noise. Everyone has something to lose when people are selfish. You don’t want to have to worry about the safety of your house, dog, car tires etc. Best to try to be a good neighbor whether you’re the noisy neighbor or the complainer. It’s expensive to move & the next neighbor could be worse!

If you install storm windows it will cut down a lot on the noise. If he’s working on his noisy bike in the driveway that’s prohibited and call Community Watch. Try not not get yourself too upset, it’s not healthy. Lawn equipment can be really annoying too. But the worst is continually barking dogs.

Obnoxious to the sensitivities of neighbors and others...obviously looking for attention.

If your neighbor reads your post you have just created an enemy.

This has to be the most misaligned thread yet, thanks for the entertainment guys!

It's amazing! I had to translate this

Loud pipes save lives = maybe sometimes they do, but if the the car is coming from your front side - they don't. That one is on vision

looking for attention = this person knows nothing about motorcycles, please go back to your solitaire game

Cares less about others = this has nothing to do with that, last I checked this is America and everyone has rights? Well part of that happens to be this result - DEAL WITH IT!

Why louder pipes? = it's a result of performance improvements, typically called stages. Opening up the air flow gives better performance for the bike. Stock systems and setup will actually shorten the life of the engine, not make it better - thank the EPA for that one.

Biker vs Rider = has to do with wind and attitude. Biker will ride in the elements, keep that bike running, and lives by a code. A Rider, either just got into it "just because" usually knows nothing about anything, leans on the dealer and typically makes bad choices, and usually found on Facebook asking newbie questions. Also these are usually the people causing the problems on a group ride.

Lastly, my favorite - Grumpy. This is the guy that has NOTHING better to do than whin, b*tch & moan about anything in life that isn't his way or viewpoint. Typically doesn't get any (xxx) from the wife. This character can be found in classics like Grumpy Old Men, Last Vegas, etc. A real thrill to be around sort of makes you wonder why you aren't hanging out with the dead it would be more fun.

Again thanks for the entertainment, just love these ridiculous threads. (and I add accordingly)

I suspect every Harley owner in the Villages will now put mufflers on their bikes. Hahahaha, just kidding....... every Harley owner thinks he was just called a turd. You ain't seen nothin' yet....... if you think it was loud before, just you wait!!

Don’t walk down middle two or three abreast. :)

OP should stop complaining and get even by hanging some wind chimes. And then confront his 'offender' on a windy day referring to him as a turd. That should put an end to his angst.

Nice rant. Very interesting. :)

Just be glad you don't live nextdoor to a kid who has a basketball hoop in his driveway, or a self carwash that everyone has their boombox on high.:welcome:

You can pick your neighborhood but not your neighbors.

Easy solution to a barking dog and owner who says tough. A silent dog whistle. Takes a while but you can train his dog to bark when he hears the whistle. You then blow the whistle a few times every week at like 2am.

Our previous home we had the neighbors from hell. When we sold the house, his wife the real problem left him. His kid was dennis the menace. I am not the kindly Mr. Wilson.

First impressions are important. When people move in and make a bad impression, it is tough to change your opinion of them and it keeps going down hill.

Actually you can pick your neighbors. Our previous home, we had the neighbors from hell move in. No the only reason we sold but of course we did not tell potential buyers about the neighbor. We bought new in the villages and we lucked out.

You can and I would, if you are buying a resale meet the neighbors, people tend to gossip.
You may learn about problems you don't see.
