For 1 because not everyone thinks its cool when you give it the gas, I get so mad at harly riders that can it when they drive by you... its like an infringement on your space... people shouldn't have to hear loud pipes... And most piped sport bikes to me sound like a wacked out bumble bee...
2) I live rural, and every police car within 8 miles can hear you when you are doing high speed runs.
3) gets REAL old to listen to when you drive around

I agree.
The worst part about loud Harley's is they make so much noise and take so long to pass you. Even if you're standing alongside the road, there's no perceptible Doppler shift in frequency as they go by.
