In brief:
27202.1. (a) Notwithstanding any other law, a person shall not
park, use, or operate a motorcycle, registered in the State of
California
, that does not bear the required applicable federal
Environmental Protection Agency exhaust system label


So, CA LEOs don't need a sound meter to write someone for loud mufflers. If they make a legal stop, they just need to look for the EPA label. No label, you can get a ticket..
Looks like a real good reason for a road trip to Nevada to register the scoot.

This argument will all be mute as soon as the Dems pass the New Green Deal. We will all be walking to work, oh forgot most of us won't have jobs.

I wish I had left the factory pipes on all of my Harleys. I'm going on 68 YOA and can't hear thunder.

Yeah, the Green Deal would give you the option of NOT WORKING, no reason just don't want to, AND GET PAID FOR IT! Have the Democrats lost their minds?

Nevada is quickly turning into a blue democrap state. The political winds in the Vegas area control the state. Unfortunate but true.
