Seriously they are deafening even from the spectator area. Especially when they used to use the "big bang" firing order like Kawasaki did a couple of seasons ago. They fire two cylinders at the same time to try to give it the engine characteristics of a v twin.

jeeeez mine already takes me 10 minutes to adjust me hearing after getting off it - can't really imagine anything louder
