Harleys are a joke in terms of any aspect of performance. Where most engineers seek to reduce NVH, they not only maintain it, they patent the noise!
Their sales continue to tank, year after year. Only nostalgic boomers buy them these days with bespoke doo-rags and vests. Those days are numbered.
On rides in the country with wifey on back, I thoroughly enjoy passing big Harley going up hill. They simply can't keep up. ;)
Follow Ups:
I rode with Ed Sessions a few times; he had a Harley. Played F-ball with Southern Cal as I remember and fought in Vietnam. Nice guy, and the Harley was LOUD! and had plenty of foot stompin' torque for some reason.
Probably not stock, and 40 years ago
His speakers at home were big JBL's, but I told him to get rid of the receiver he had and buy an Adcom. Last I heard he was in jail, I don't know why
if that's what you're trying to emulate.Mac isn't that bad, just overpriced and boring. They put useless "Blue light special" meters on preamps, subwoofers, and even towels! They once advertised such was a "core competency"(!). And inclusion of a compressor circuit they call "Power Guard" for those who cannot hear clipping. They even sell a $1500 backlit empty box : "A must for every McIntosh owner"
People buy them for the light show. Period.
