It may be old news ...

But this is coming to a state near you:

New California Exhaust Law

They are out to quiet us down, no question. If you aren't an AMA member yet, you should consider it - the mag is worth it and they do work on protecting our rights and privileges.

I'm glad to live in the most dangerous city in the US, Saint Louis cops don't give a **** about motorcycle exhaust, cause that would require them to get out of their cars. Not going to happen.

well good thing the dont make buells anymore so you guys out there on buells dont got to worry about it

Doesn't surprise me. On the plus side, it's doubtful I'll own a bike made after 2013 until at least 2020, so it's nothing I have to worry about any time soon.

To be honest I love bikes, and I love the noise Vtwins and I4s make, but a lot of people on bikes make me want to hate motorcyclists as well so I don't blame the general public for wanting to quiet us down. I even think my own bike is a little too loud with the hawk on it and have been planning on making some of those home-made exhaust silencers from the Mcmaster-carr parts that someone on here made.
