If you have an IS, or a big amp/speakers installed, on a stock exhaust valk, you can play Hog motor sound really loud on the stereo.  (need a CD or Ipod with Hog noise though)

The only one around here that I'm aware of is Heritage Cycles on Beal Street (Harley dealer) in Fort Walton Beach.  They're the only shop/dealer that rents bikes anywhere around here that I know of.   They have a long standing reputation for not being the most friendly of folk, but they're the only game in town if you want something Harley.

The local Honda dealer (in front of Sam's Club and just down the street from Heritage) is KM Cycle & Marine (just changed owners....was Fort Walton Honda/Yamaha), but I don't think they rent anything.

I did do something in line befor only was trying to start the valk with sound of HD puffing and backfiring had the kill switch on so you could here the starter and then when fired up twist the heck of the throttle got some real strange looks  2funny 2funny uglystupid2

If you have the stock pipes on, you just keep shouting "PO-TAT-O PO-TAT-O PO-TAT-O" as you drive around....

If you've got a stereo, record an MP3 of this video from 19 seconds on, and play it on repeat really really loud while your engine is off and you're cranking the throttle.....
