Naa, they wouldn't harass me because I'd tell them to go "Eff" themselves. 
You should take the"Hipster" out back and have a "talk" with them.
I have lived in Brooklyn my whole life. I've parked my bike inside my gate for 8 years now. My father had his bike in the gate since the 80s. Now some hipster neighbor who is paying 3000 for rent decides to call the buildings department on me now I have to move my bikes to the street. Well guess what. I have 3 bikes and parking is very limited. Guess I'm going to have to start riding the fatboy with no baffles!

To the OP:
Your loud pipe may be fun to you but not to everyone else. So the key is to have fun but keep the fun for yourself and not "sharing" it with everyone else.
Think about a neighbor next to you enjoying playing drums (and he plays loud), how would you like it ?
When I leave my house early in the morning (and my bike is not loud at all), I push it out to the open road and then I start the engine. My neighbors appreciate that.

I'm the 1st house in the Subdivision, but my address is on the main road.
I had a snow plow truck and used to plow the intersection where you pull out.
Have a massive snow blower now. (cheaper )
Much easier to pull out onto a 50 mph road in traffic when the road is clear .
Bus stop is also on my corner and I do an extra area for the kiddo's.
I started plowing the foot of the neighbors driveways after the county come's thru and plows the street...... heavy packed snow, pain in the *** to shovel..... but took seconds with my truck.
My neighbors don't complain about anything.........
Heck they bring me baked goods at Christmas !!
Had 7 bikes and 5 trucks here for that MMA Vs boxing match this summer.
It ended pretty late, and some noise was made...
I asked the neighbors if it woke anyone up........ No complaints
(Also invited them)
Why don't you have a BBQ and invite the neighbor over.....offer him a beer or something........... let him sit on your bike and take a pic........
He might catch the bug and join you !
