quote:Just heard a visious rumer today at the bike shop. The CARB (California Air Resources Board) is going to start smogging bikes soon, the manager of the shop said he heard 2008. So if you go to aftermarket pipes, make sure you keep the stockers if you live out here in California because they will be looking for the catalytic converter on those bikes that have em and he said any modifications might have to be returned to stock to get em smogged. Is this a good time to move or what? At least worth an ear to the ground to see whats up.
I just got done looking up this bill and It has nothing to do with Smog, It's to do with Architects!
Smog rules aren't changing folks, This rumor is Dead.
Here's the text of what is in the html and the pdf file:
AB 2683, as amended, Negrete McLeod Architecture: report on
judgment, settlement, or arbitration award.
Existing law provides for the licensing and regulation of
architects by the California Architects Board. Existing law requires
a licensee to report to the board any civil action judgment,
settlement, arbitration award, or administrative action resulting in
a judgment, settlement, or arbitration award against the licensee if
the action alleges fraud, deceit, negligence, incompetence, or
recklessness by the licensee in the practice of architecture and the
amount or value of the judgment, settlement, or award is $5,000 or
more.
This bill would make failure of a licensee or claimant,
or their counsel, to comply with this requirement, or
conspiracy or collusion not to comply with the requirement or to
hinder or impede any other person in complying with the requirement,
a misdemeanor punishable by a specified fine. Because this bill would
create a new crime, it would impose a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this
act for a specified reason.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: yes.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Section 5588 of the Business and Professions Code is
amended to read:
5588. (a) A licensee shall report to the board in writing within
30 days of the date the licensee has knowledge of any civil action
judgment, settlement, arbitration award, or administrative action
resulting in a judgment, settlement, or arbitration award against the
licensee in any action alleging fraud, deceit, negligence,
incompetence, or recklessness by the licensee in the practice of
architecture if the amount or value of the judgment, settlement, or
arbitration award is five thousand dollars ($5,000) or greater.
(b) The report required by subdivision (a) shall be signed by the
licensee and shall set forth the facts that constitute the reportable
event. If the reportable event involves the action of an
administrative agency or court, the report shall set forth all of the
following:
(1) The title of the matter.
(2) The court or agency name.
(3) The docket number.
(4) The claim or file number.
(5) The date on which the reportable event occurred.
(c) A licensee shall promptly respond to oral or written inquiries
from the board concerning the reportable events, including inquiries
made by the board in conjunction with license renewal.
(d) Failure of a licensee to report to the board in the time and
manner required by this section shall be grounds for disciplinary
action.
(e) Failure of a licensee or claimant or, if represented
by counsel, their counsel, to comply with this section
shall be a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of not less than one
hundred dollars ($100) or more than one thousand dollars ($1,000).
Knowing and intentional failure to comply with this section, or
conspiracy or collusion not to comply with this section or to hinder
or impede any other person in complying with this section, shall be a
misdemeanor punishable by a fine of not less than ten thousand
dollars ($10,000) or more than one hundred thousand dollars
($100,000).
SEC. 2. No reimbursement is required by this act pursuant to
Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California Constitution because
the only costs that may be incurred by a local agency or school
district will be incurred because this act creates a new crime or
infraction, eliminates a crime or infraction, or changes the penalty
for a crime or infraction, within the meaning of Section 17556 of the
Government Code, or changes the definition of a crime within the
meaning of Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California
Constitution.

Why are you unhappy Stalwart?
Perhaps I went off half cocked . . . LOL . . . I made a BAD assumption that since the pipes are shown with the lower faring removed, I figured they needed to be left off.

I'm with Stalwart, What new zx14 items? I looked on TiForce's website where He suggested and elsewhere and Muzzy has more on their website than almost anybody else that I know of, Only Micron comes close to Muzzy so far(Just an exhaust so far on Microns website and no price), But It is a New motorcycle and good things come to those who wait. Of course I have to wait, No choice really.
