You guys amaze me.
So the OP doesn't spell well, you couldn't figure out what he was saying?
You have to embarrass him?
No wonder some people here feel intimidated when they post.

I live in a civilized part of a Cleveland suburb and I try to respect those around me. If I'm leaving early I roll the bike to the end of my driveway, start it and roll right away slowly. A lot of extra noise doesn't mean a lot of extra power, you can be reasonable with your exhaust choice, and it's easier on you and your ears. A not so wide opened exhaust can be more fun with the extra torque.

Not sure what kind of bike you have, but most of them have a kill switch. Once you're ready to start it again just run through normal operating procedures and off you go. No need to thank me now, just consider this a favor that I may collect on in the future.

Just need to make sure there is a check mark next to "Check Spelling".

I don't give a damn about my current neighbors....though the wife & a 5 month old baby.

Best thing I can tell you is depending on your exhaust look at changing out your baffles.

In your case...idle it & quietly leave the 'hood slowly. Don't worry about steel wool.
I totally agree 100%
