I have the Wolf RX50 and I don't think it's too loud. Nowhere near as loud as a motorcycle. As far as mopeds/motorcycles are concerned though, having a near silent one (like you get with an electric) can put you at more risk. You are already less visible to cars, so a bit of noise helps other drivers to realize you are there.

There's a "bit of noise" and then there's the relentless, unbelievably permeating buzzing you get in some cities full of these mopeds. It doesn't matter if you're on a gigantic Honda Goldwing, you're invisible if you're on a two wheeled vehicle. Drivers are idiots.
