Should loud motorcycles be outlawed?

I live on a nice, winding, barely 2-lane country road in TN that connects to the Natchez Trace. If you don't already know, thousands of adults like to hit the Trace to 'play biker' on beautiful TN weekends. These clowns are replete with brand new (stiff) leathers, boots, and every other accoutrement this wannabe-counterculture deems 'badass'.
Often these folks will detour down my otherwise peaceful road in order to make a loop. Very few of the bikes are equipped with acceptable sound dampening, and they are often blaring a radio (I don't get this...but whatever). The bikes are so loud that they sometimes scare my 4yo daughter and my son will hold his ears.
Shouldn't this be considered 'noise pollution' and restricted by law?

It is an annoyance.
Cars have to be sound muffled but not bikes.

The only reason people even ride bikes is to do drugs and hang out with criminals. I don't see why they are even legal.

Yes, it only sounds cool for a few seconds and then it gets progressively annoying.

Yes, we should be allowed to go and cold cock them uneducated dirty mother frickers right in the ear and drop their bitch asses on the spot while kicking their bike on top of them.
All these nasty mothrrfrickers want is for people to look at them. If they would take a god damn shower for once maybe people wouldn't be so repelled by them and they would get more of the attention they obviously in need of.
LARPimg fricks stink

I know some folks who commute on them, and I commuted on one back in 2010-2013 when gas was high, but the folks who solely ride on the weekend and/or trailer their bikes certainly want you to believe this.

Same thing here, in TN, kind of a rural area. Im outside the other day & I swear I thought some brigade was coming thru. It was one motorcycle making all that noise

Put some logs across the road.

Can you recommend a motorcycle-free area?

They're annoying as shite and piss me off, but it's a mild inconvenience. Some people have really loud and annoying voices, but it doesn't mean they should be outlawed from talking. On second thought...

I always know when my neighbor is coming or going. Other than when he leaves his house before 6 AM on the bike, I don't care.
