Which is the best motorcycle noise ever?

Ricky and Chad's 2005 250 supercross machines

(as much as i hate the 4-strokes sound, RV's 250f at the 2007 MXdN was unreal. you could hear his bike from anywhere, no matter where he was on the track.)

a PW50 with a happy kid on top of it.

The 250 2-stroke factory Kawasaki which Stefan Everts raced in 1995.
That bike was build by the late Jan de Groot and I think Harry Nolte was his mechanic back then.
That's 2 bike professors right there.
That thing sounded like a 300cc, you could hear Everts coming by the sound of that bike.
I will never forget that sound.

the Geico Honda 250f's this year sound so crazy, revving soooo high. But maybe I'm too young to appreciate the sound of a 2 stroke...

A TZ125 coming on the pipe. Chambered two stroke twins are something else.

A gate full of 125's taking off at a pro national

Back in the day, 1977, i used get hard over the buzzing of the group of "A" grade 80cc's or125's out on the track.

Any factory RM125... Vohland's slow CR125, RCs RM250, Bradshaw's '92 YZ250... LaRocco's KX500, Dogger's KX250, RJs '87 CR250... anybody who includes a 4stroke on this list should be banned for life

This.


And This.


Another one.


And if you're a fan of the first three....this...

1987 Broome Tioga National, 125 practice at 9:45 in the morning. I swing the car door open at 15 years old and the obsession began. About 60 125s ripping up the long uphill by the highway, the sweet smell of 927 castor and race gas. The damp overcast sky making a beautiful contrast of rich dark soil on lush green grass with the smell of barbeque chicken mixed in the whole thing.. Dymond, Turpin, Tichenor, Warren, Cooper, Brooks, ect... Alright maybe a little more than the sound but you get the picture!

The sound of a 125 wrapping through the gears out of a corner WFO with a very competent pilot at the controls. The one positive aspect of Stewart's ability to check out so early on in most of his races was that I could hear his bike and his bike alone. I miss that sound...

0:43 Best sound ever.

when i think of the greatest sound ever..... i think of the intro to Jay Schwietzer's On the Pipe 1. a nice crisp sounding 250, first kick...and the first few seconds after its fired.

i looked for the video but couldnt find it...if anyone has it please post

omg that's nasssssssty.


lmao.

Stewart's KX250. Looooove that bike. Listen at 0:05...

... This was obviously destined to be a two-stroke thread. No one wanted to be the first guy to post a video of a fooper. Aside from engine noises, I love the sound of the chain roller when you're pushing your bike to your truck or garage or whatever. Or I love the sound of bikes starting up early morning at the track. Or any echo in some trees.

2002 San Diego Reeds turn down whip over the triple panic reved to the moon. Hands down.

Similarly - 2002 Washougal, RC heading up Horsepower Hill at Washougal on a 250 followed by a group heavily populated by 450s with a nice 2 second gap between him and the pack after lap 1.

Triumph Twin

A pack of 500 2 strokes.

Oh yes!

KTM LC8 with FCR carbs and akra exhaust w/o baffels

A perfectly jetted Jim Felt tuned 125 on the pipe, just ask O'Show.

The buzz of a 80 pack in the hands of the top 80cc riders is awesome.

I love the sound of a raspy assed small bore so I bring to your viewing pleasure a 4 stroke that is Newmann approved. A 6 cylinder 250 Honda built with the precision of a watchmaker.

Panic rev
