A bill has passed the California Assembly & Senate to require EPA stickers on motorcycle exhausts for motorcycles manufactured after Jan 1, 2013 and is on the Governator's desk. I am not a fan of stupid-loud exhausts but this is singling out motorcycles in a discriminatory way.
Go to http://www.ama-cycle.org/legisltn/rapidresponse.asp and do a Search By State for CA and it will be the item at the top of the list. You can do an email to the Governor encouraging him to veto this bill (pre-written letter already there).
Too late to lobby the other knuckleheads in Sacramento since this has passed both houses but our motorcycle-riding Governor needs to know how we feel about this.
For all of you in other states rolling your eyes about California, how many laws started here and moved through the country? You could be next with a CA precedent. Apologies to the non-US folks; I have to plead a bit of ignorance on how other parts of the world deal with issues like this.
thanks,
