I know I wrote my Senator..
And he replied, by mail a few days ago.. I'm impressed..

 

Great news. A big thanks to California ABATE and all the others who fought this. Glad those Comi's in Santa Monica didn't succeed in this BS. I will never spend a dollar in Santa Monica.

 

Thanks Juve and all the others who wrote their Senator.

 

Now we can get back to the important topics....
fingerless gloves
assless chaps
what oil to use
where to place gas cap
etc-!

 

Don't forget about "to wave or not".

 

"It now merely authorizes law enforcement officers to fine motorcyclists who remove the converters".

I see the writing on the wall. Get ready to be hassled for loud pipes, they will say its not oem or EPA compliant because there is no EPA number on the aftermarket pipes.

 

This is already in effect in some areas(loud pipes).Maybe the fines will be incresed for tampering with emmisions?
I'll take my chances.

 

Agreed! but this will give oppertunities to a lot of pd's to start writing. SF announced they are enforcing a loud pipe ticket campaign for the entire summer. Are they having the Hollister rally this year?

 

Just like Santa Monica, Frisco won't get any of my $$$ either..

I don't like that place anyway..
