105dB is not very loud.

look for 120-130dB or more.

to put in context. Your run of the mill speaker on a stick at a venue has a peak of around 126dB

Will keep that in mind thanks! I just want them to scare them, not give them tinnitus

I agree you need more power. I'm not sure what you're planning to do is totally legal though.

Maybe you should see if the county will install speed bumps on your road, may discourage bikers from going that way at all. Best I can think of, I know some bikers can be real assholes about purposely making noise

Or accidentally spill a bunch of gravel....

Jokes apart I hate speed breakers (that's what they're called round here) more like neck breakers. They put those on highways wherever there's a bunch of accidents. I drive a 170mm ground clearance hatchback and my bumper still scrapes the things, going 10 km/hr. All because people cannot follow stop signs but hey, enforcing rules never won anyone any votes.
