TT sounds, when I first attended the TT/MGP singles were the order of the day, but there was distinct sounds between Norton/Velos/AJS etc, and with them blowing straight through. They did sound great.
Then the Twins with their distinct sound was another dimension and gave some idea as to what was to come, which was the Multi-cylinder bikes.
Well the MVs and Gileras were a revelation in sound, particularly the MVs which to me could be best described as a screaming sound.
Then along came the Japanese with Honda etc.
Of course then there was so many different sounds with bikes starting at 50cc with so many gears.
One sound that did stand out as being different for me, was the BM's in the chairs, such a powerful throbbing beat.
I would have to say that that the fist bike round in practice/race sets my heart thumping whatever it is. that's the TT aint it.
