Great news. A big thanks to California ABATE and all the others who fought this. Glad those Comi's in Santa Monica didn't succeed in this BS. I will never spend a dollar in Santa Monica.

"It now merely authorizes law enforcement officers to fine motorcyclists who remove the converters".
I see the writing on the wall. Get ready to be hassled for loud pipes, they will say its not oem or EPA compliant because there is no EPA number on the aftermarket pipes.

Agreed! but this will give oppertunities to a lot of pd's to start writing. SF announced they are enforcing a loud pipe ticket campaign for the entire summer. Are they having the Hollister rally this year?
