I can't see it being a sticker, sticker's can be pulled off and reapplied.
Plus, some genius will be selling sticker's on E-bay soon.
Did you read the above posts?

Federal law requires that all exhaust systems have an EPA stamp (embossed on the exhaust system) that shows the exhaust system is in compliance with EPA regulations.

Yes we did, and your proof is self explanatory...
And not to single out you Yankees, REAL BBQ is made from pork, not Texas cows.

BTW Gump, how deep is the snow today? We're planning on a 300 mile run across the state tomorrow for some BBQ lunch.

When did they start stamping the mufflers on bikes? The pipes from my 1999 Ultra stacked in my gagrage does not have any stamp any where on them... I understand the law, but both my bikes are older, at least 10 years old.

That is G*D D**NED theivery!!!!

I cannot believe that! I thought CA was bad enough, but SEIZING A BIKE PERMANENTLY? I really think that goes waaaay to far. It is one thing for the fines to increase, but taking a bike permanently is going so far over the line it isn't even funny.

Now I am pissed...

I personally do not have stock pipes on either bikes or any previous bike. But there is someone always asking about loud pipes and we give them information and opinions on the noise level of the pipes and 90% of the time with no regard to the laws of states. These laws are spreading through the country and we have no one to blame but ourselves. I personally try to be respectful to others but the guy cracking the throttle unnecessarily so he can prove his ****** is bigger than your or trying to impress other people for there inferiority complex is continuously forcing our lawmakers to write laws to pacify the MAJORITY of the people. If you like cracking the throttle in residential areas, look in the mirror and you will see who is at fault for the loud pipe laws through the country.

I think it WAS...it was called the constitution. No one seems to remember what that was supposed to mean any more.
