Since I could'nt find a decent place to mount my 8 Track, I like the sounds of nature & the blowing of the wind!!!!!!
Radio, Music or sound of the wind?

Gone but not forgotten.
John's a big fan of smooth jazz, swing & blues. I prefer 60s and 70s R&B, so I have a volume control on our MP3 player that he has on max!

My Vance & Hines 2-2 Sweepers, but that's not in the survey. Have always had stereos on my trikes - but never had a Harley engine to listen to until now. Don't need a stereo any more - Harleys are music to my ears.

MY kind of guy
John Fogarty's album, Blue Moon Swamp. Virtually every song on it is good for a speeding ticket.......especially Hot Rod Heart!!!! Just depends on my mood whether the music is on or not....sometimes I play it real loud in town just to keep the old folks on their toes when crossing the street!! :yes:
Classic rock station..or if out of a reception area...CDs or MP3, usually of the "ACDC, LedZep, Fleetwood Mac" genre..
Now thats some good music:yes:
My bride likes CW. My channel changing switches get a good workout each ride.
I'll be listening to a good old P Floyd song and there she goes changing the channel again. I think she is in love with K Chesney

Need to bring her to Key West when he's home. He likes to do un announced sit ins when he is in town.
Very simple 50's on 5 or 60's on 6 that's all I have to say on that subject !!!! (Per Forrest Gump)
I Listen to XM SIRUS, most of the time 1950's & 1960's.

I'm a bit of a motor head so it's 450 HP and a V8 plus the sound of the wind!
DEPENDS ON WHAT MY SOUL NEEDS ON ANY GIVEN DAY----THERES DAYS THAT ARE MEDITATION WITH GODS CREATION AND THE SOUND OF THE V's POTATO POTATO
THEN THERE ARE DAYS WHEN THE SIRUS RADIO COMES ON AND BELTS OUT THE BLUES FOR ME

Music on satellite radio and the GPS is wired into the sound system. LONG trips I listen to audio books I download from the library.
My Preference is: XM RADIO, 50'S & 60'S, GOSPEL MUSICAL AND RUSH LIMBAUGH RADIO.

I've tried several times to listen to music. The longest it has lasted before I turned it off has been 10 minutes. I love the natural sounds that go with riding to much to cover it.

Yep....definetly the same here....Riding Sounds are Their Own Music....ThumbUp
I did'nt know you could hear the engine on a Honda:Shrug: We make the Honda guys start theirs first and let us know its running, heck even our Suzuki triker makes some noise.:yes: but Honda:Shrug: Although one of the gals riding a yeller one like yours is running straight pipesThumbUp and you can hear hers:wave4: LOL
I pulled the stock baffles out of my VTX--rewrapped with one layer od heavy fiberglass matting followed by spiralling (like a barbar pole) of wood stove door rope------sounds great
Engine,Lifters,Exhaust,Wind, I leave the tunes for the car and home stereo.

I turn the volume control way down while John's listening to the blues and go sound asleep . . . :Sleep1:
In fact, the one time hubby turned the radio on I had him turn it off....I find it an annoying disturbance to the peace of riding. It seems like once the wind starts blowing in your face it blows a good portion of your troubles away!
Yep, that's the way I feel, too.
In fact, when I pull up to a traffic light and someone else has their music blaring away loudly (whether biker or cager), I find it annoying.
Fortunately, being in a rural community, most of the time, I get to enjoy the sun in my face and the wind in what's left of my hair with a minimum of traffic or other noise.
