Re: V-twin vs. Inline 4
V-twin = sounds harley, possibility of making a person deaf
Inline 4 = High revving scream, seems more exciting I love the sound of high revving engines. |

Re: V-twin vs. Inline 4
definitely sportbike twins-NO HARLEYS! an earth shattering roar, not a whiny high pitched scream.

Re: V-twin vs. Inline 4
A decent sport bike v twin like a Ducati sounds great.
I HATE harley's sound. Stock it's tolerable, but everyone around here runs those dopey really loud pipes, which give a Harley the graceful sound,,,of my old snowblower with no muffler. However, every in line 4 sounds like an Formula one car winding out. It's great. If I want the harley sound....i'll get the snow blower out. |

doesn't the SV650 also carry v-twin? I don't suppose that makes Harley noise.

Re: V-twin vs. Inline 4
I guess the difference in sound is mostly to do with harley engines having much bigger capacities and very long piston strokes? :shrug:

Re: V-twin vs. Inline 4
The harley has a unique sound from most vtwins because they decided to have both cylinders fire at the same time. Which is why the engine makes laughable power for its displacement, why the bike rattles apart, and why they are so damn annoying when coupled with a exhaust which are nothing more than polished straight pipes.
