I used to ride motorcycles.  My last one was a HD Sportster 1200
Sports with a nice solo seat and quiet Supertrapp exhaust.  Yup, an
anti-HD exhaust that is probably quieter than stock.  It went away
after I got married and especially when the little one came along, but
I still have my nice leather gear and helmets as keepsakes.

Back during those relatively carefree days, my bicycle mileage was
super-high, hitting 5-digits annually.  So even though I ride my
motorcycle somewhat often, it was a fairly puny ratio in favor of the
bicycles.

Maybe when I retire...
