Default SERT going bye bye?

I had a conversation the other day about the EPA and our bikes. He told me that the SERT is going to go the same way as the Screaming Eagle pipes soon. Every one is installing them and the EPA is freaking out about it.

I dont doubt it . I 2-3 years things are really going to be tough. HD will have their water cooled engines by then.

What is going to happen to the V&Hs, Samsons, and DynoJets of the world? This is absolutely ridiculous.

Did you guys see what the EPA has done the surfing world? They basically outlawed the factory that made all the foam for the boards. All the surfing shops are freaking out because they can't get board blanks anywhere. It looks like the same thing is headed our way. I bought a SERT this week because I was afraid they'd be discontinued at some point in the future. Hope it doesn't happen, but you never know.

If you don't mind. Who were you talking with? Obviously someone you have confidence in. They are really wanting to make our lives a little more difficult. They already outsize us many times over, take us out on the road whenever they get a chance. Now they want our bikes to run like $hit. We need the president to get on a Harley. Never mind, I saw what happened when our governator got on a Harley. lol

Harley just wants to sell bikes and chrome. They want to get out of doing any type of engine modifications and avoid EPA fines that would amount to millions of dollars.

Perhaps I'm a dumb a$$. What is SERT and how will affect me? I checked the EPA website and found nothing under SERT or HD.

SERT (Screaming Eagle Race Tuner) used to tune fuel injected bikes.
