The one time I was checked, the baconator let me do the throttle twisting. 119 db on a fat cat with the standard baffle. He let me go because I wasn't sounding off when I went by him. He didn't realize that I wasn't until he heard how much bark that fat cat actually had.

 

Noise does bug some non riders. You know how noise travels out in the country in the early, early a.m.? I've lived here ( way out in the country,) 4 years now and still run into people who live on the route I take to the busier state route at the local grocery store. Many have pointed out the fact that they hear me every day going past their homes. Some are smiling, some aren't.

I run a Patriot Pipe with an adjustable baffle. In the morning it's closed until I get to Rt 96 then 3/4 open the rest of the way (which is where it's tuned to run.) So I do what I can to be a good neighbor. And to those who don't like it? Well they'll have to deal with it however they want I guess. I know they'd be the ones to enforce the 83 db limit if they could though.

I'm certain that the tougher enforcement is coming down the road to differing degrees ( depending on where you live.)

 

It is really about time that all persons who works for the government quit their jobs or call in sick and no one apply for government employment. As long as people are taking jobs and enforcing these idiotic laws those people are just as much of the problem as those idiots who make the laws. Boycotts work and it is time to boycott the govt.

This noise law makes as much sense as issuing someone a ticket for exceeding the speed limit simply because their vehicle will actually exceed the speed limit.

 

I'm betting that you won't even remove the tag off a mattress.

 

Read the instructions that came with your after market exhaust, just about all I have ever seen, have a clause "for off road use only". The items are not legal for use on public roads.

What a waste of tax payer money. Big government....high taxes and absurd regulations which the tax payer doesn't want or need. I guess we deserve it..... we ask for it each first Tuesday of November and then we act like we didn't know what was coming.
I am glad we won't ever do what Canada does, we are the US......oops I forgot, they have government run health care .....oh well!!

Coming to a city near you!!!

 

Where is Thomas Paine when you need him?
"If we look back to the riots and tumults which at various times have happened in England, we shall find, that they did not proceed from the want of a government, but that government was itself the generating cause; instead of consolidating society, it divided it; it deprived it of its natural cohesion, and engendered discontents and disorders, which otherwise would not have existed."
