[QUOTE="cleonard, post: 7653, member: 21"] I'm not falling for anything. I'm just saying that it's not as insane as it was before. The original bill was totally whacko. This bill grandfathers all current bikes. This grandfathering is a California thing. You know that we can't plate dirt bikes anymore, but we get to keep the old plated bikes. I have one. My plate is secure. In other states they are pulling plates of bikes that have been plated for years. Now that really sucks and that is the kind of thing that this bill would have done. If they are going to change the requirements it had better be only for tomorrow's bikes. It is just requireing labeling. The stupid part is that it makes zero difference functionally from any existing law. We already have unenforced sound limits. As far as I can tell this bill does not change the current sound limits. All this does is make it an infraction not to have a label. The pipe manufacturers had better make soom durable labels. It would suck for one good blast with a pressure washer to make you an outlaw.
