I hope you guys in Calif kept your stock pipes

It was posted that Ca Gober signed SB 435 into law last night .. I hope you guys still have your stock pipes .. I really like the first line of the law " Makes it a crime for a person to park " You don't even have to ride it to get a ticket !!! Just park it with aftermarket exhaust and get a ticket .. WOW


SUBJECT: Motorcycle exhaust system federal noise labels

SUMMARY: Makes it a crime for a person to park, use, or operate a motorcycle, registered in the state that is manufactured on and after January 1, 2011, that does not have a federal U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) noise emission control label. Specifically, this bill:

1) Requires that a registered motorcycle manufactured on and after January 1, 2011, and operating within the state, have a federal U.S. EPA noise emission label.

2) Establishes that a violation of the labeling requirement is a mechanical violation and a peace officer is prohibited from stopping a motorcycle solely on a suspicion of a violation of this labeling requirement. Requires a peace officer to cite a violation of this law as a secondary infraction.

3) Requires that a person issued a notice to appear or to whom a complaint is filed, to produce a proof of correction.

4) Establishes a violation of this law as punishable by the same fine that is currently established pursuant to the equipment anti-tampering law.

EXISTING LAW:

1) Known as California's anti-tampering law, prohibits the installation, sale, offer for sale, or advertisement of any device, apparatus, or mechanism intended for use with, or as a part of, any required motor vehicle pollution control device or system that alters or modifies the original design or performance of the motor vehicle pollution control device or system.

2) Subsequent to the purchase of a motor vehicle (including a motorcycle), establishes an exemption by the California Air Resources Board (ARB) if an alteration, modification, or modifying device, apparatus, or mechanism does either of the following:

a) Not to reduce the effectiveness of the required motor vehicle pollution control device; or,

b) To result in emissions from the modified or altered vehicle that are at levels that comply with existing state or federal standards for that model year.

3) Requires a motorcycle to have equipped at all times an adequate muffler in constant operation and properly maintained to prevent any excessive or unusual noise. Prohibits a person from modifying the exhaust system of a motor vehicle in a manner which will amplify or increase the noise emitted by the motor of the vehicle that exceeds the noise limits or otherwise makes the motorcycle noncompliant.

4) Existing federal regulations require a motorcycle manufactured on and after January 1, 1983, and exhaust emission systems for those motorcycles, to meet specified noise emissions standards and require that a label be affixed onto the motorcycle or exhaust emission system indicating that the motorcycle or exhaust emission system meets the noise emissions standards.

I disagree....you save more time commuting lane splitting with a stock pipe than having an aftermarket pipe in bumper to bumper in the other states.

We are not so damn congested and sitting at constant stand stills in traffic that we need to lane split.

1983 and up are subject to the new law .. Meaning you will get a ticket if you don't have approve EPA Exhaust for the year model you own going all the way back to 1983 .. The website said 2011 .. I don't know where 2013 came from ?




4) Existing federal regulations require a motorcycle manufactured on and after January 1, 1983, and exhaust emission systems for those motorcycles, to meet specified noise emissions standards and require that a label be affixed onto the motorcycle or exhaust emission system indicating that the motorcycle or exhaust emission system meets the noise emissions standards.

Just kidding. But seriously Cali is getting crazy. I can understand the emissions stuff. Sucks to go to some beautiful mountains and it's barely visible due to pollution.

I actually like the idea of those cavemen designed Vee twin monstrocities being penalized for their extremely noisy ass sounding pos's .
They are way louder than any of our sportbikes.

Now it's Ca next year it will drift across the usa... Why the rest of the country has to follow Ca is beyond me.. All one has to do is look at Ca to see how fucked up they are, so we want that for the rest of the country ? ...
