Since when does a parked motorcycyle make noise.

Perhaps the reason they don't want motorcycles to park is because they are more concerned that the bikers who will then climb off them will make loads of noise partying and having a good time.

My guess is that whoever lives on the other side of those parking meters probably put those stickers on the meters. They just do not look like anything a governmental agency would use. The picture of the motorcycle and the lack of a municipal code are the give aways to me. I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

These signs were on all the meters on that block. That street overlooks the beach and on the other side are houses. I am not sure if the dept of transportation put these stickers on or residents, but they are on each meter.
This is a real photo that I took. I don't kid about motorcycle rights.

I found those meters the other day. My wife and I were going to have lunch at Las Brisas and all of the meters in that area have the stickers. We went and ate down the coast aways, still in Laguna Beach. We ride throughLaguna Beachonce or twice a week and have never had any problems.
The following is from the Laguna Beach Municiple Code.

This is the first I have heard of this. I never go to Laguna Beach and now I really don't even want to ever go there.

I was thinking that. You can't park, but is there anything to stop you riding back and forward repeatedly past the meters and causing a continual noise?
Perhaps the reason they don't want motorcycles to park is because they are more concerned that the bikers who will then climb off them will make loads of noise partying and having a good time.

Another reason you couldn't pay me to live incommiefornia. They don't care about the illegal alien problem, but they're really concerned about the motorcycle "problem". It's not pc togo after the illegals, but it's pc to attack the "noise problems". [:@]

RE: Quiet zone - Motorcycles restricted
I wonder why it is a harley type bike dipicted instead of a rice rocket? isn't that some kind of discrimination?
Maybe we as harley riders should file a law suit?
