Do OEM's make bikes that are less than 80db? I actually would support this, but 80db seems kinda quiet, 95 or 100db would be mo0re reasonable

i thought for sure this thing wouldnt pass, the governator being a biker supposedly, and he's on his way out. kinda like a big "screw u" cali bikers.
so...does that mean that theres no db limit on 2012 and older bikes?

The law says that you have to display the EPA Noise Pollution Label of 80db, not that it has to be 80 db. So you just take the label off of the OEM can and put it on ur D&D Problem solved.

It ain't gonna affect the aftermarketers any either. Leo Vince and a host of other aftermarket exhaust companies already put out Euro stamped compliance exhausts. All they have to do is revise their tooling to stamp USDOT compliance stamp on the exhausts as well. You take the shit home, yank out the dB-killer inserts just like you do now. Done. Finito. End of story. It was a stupid law that really means nothing. If anything, it allows people with aftermarket pipes to run the shit loud. "Hey, officer, here's the stamp showing that it's DOT noise compliant. I don't know why it's loud." How many cops would know about dB-killer inserts? Right now cops can bust you with fix-it tickets for just having non-factory pipes.

If your exhaust is really loud do you really think a fake label is going to stop them from writing a ticket?

Your missing the point Hans. The reason this law is bad is because NOW cops can simply pull you over to CHECK for the label. They can already pull you over for loud exhaust, so the MY is not relevant.
