It sounds alot like a V-8 with a slightly lumpy cam. That's what it sounds like to me.
That's all I wanted to hear!! When I was asked what'd be the best sounding motorcycle in the world, I basically said the above statement.RuneMan said:I think that it sounds very much like the GL1800 Gold Wing but is slightly louder and has a deeper or lower tone.
Someone must be feeling nostalgic!No thought or money went into making any noise at all from the Rune,with a drill or changing out pipes,very similar to a Wing maybe a note or two higher. Try and find one in your area for the truth-not what any of us say or offer up. If you keep it stock a couple of clothes pins and hockey cards in both wheels could add some more dbs. Good luck my friend!
+1i think that it sounds very much like the gl1800 gold wing but is slightly louder and has a deeper or lower tone.
Happens ALL the time!he also liked it when people pulled out their camera phones as i stopped at red lights !
AmenAn on topic response ...........
The RUNE sound PURRRRfic the way it comes from the HONDA FACTORY ..... no need to drill, or add such Big A$$ pipes to the RUNE ......
IMHO ........:banghead:
it does not sound any better will not run as fast than it does straight off the show room floor .........
BUT that is just my on topic response .......
No really thats what makes the RUNE the RUNE ...... each of us have just a little different RUNE ..... And that makes everything correct in the Universe .... if you like a louder rumble by all means change the exhaust !!!! I like about 5 mins of the added Noise myself .......
Lets Ride .......:biker:
