Whats the best way to go about trying to pick up an aftermarket exhaust for my 2014 street bob in California, because of all the restrictions and stuff.
Based upon the quantity of apparent non-EPA compliant exhaust in Ca. There must be an easier way than buying out of state... Says the guy with full Vance and Hines installed while living in Oregon.

You would think with all the exhaust companies that reside in CA (ie. Vance and Hines) that they would be able to figure out a way to sell their own products to the people that share their state or make something that falls into the states regulations, even if they would be a POS in comparison to other exhaust systems.
This is relevant to my concerns I have RnS loud AF exhaust on my bike. Fine in Korea but I'm keeping the stock pipes just in case I have to get hooked up for "smog check" when I bring it home to CA after retirement. I also have the baffle in the RnS, does anybody know if I will be hassled?

You'll have to have the bike inspected by the CHP before they will issue tags so I do suggest you do a little research in whatever area you'll be moving to about what inspection stations are bike friendly and which are not, not all play far and some can be real hardass about trivial stuff loud pipes in particular so do what you can to quiet them before hand. Smog checks are not an issue yet.
