Be careful in LB, the news is reporting that the city is going to crack down on exhaust violations. Probably near downtown, Belmont Shores, and Shoreline Drive.

LONG BEACH - Long Beach police said on Friday they will be beefing up their enforcement of motorcycle noise, particularly on Ocean Boulevard.
It is illegal in California to modify a motorcycle's exhaust to make it louder, and the citable limit for noise in the state is 95 decibels.
Cmdr. Jay Johnson of the Long Beach Police Department's South Division said more complaints have been reaching police in the past few weeks and some residents are doing noise-detector readings that show illegal motorcycle riding.
"This is not a new problem, particularly on Ocean Boulevard," Johnson said. "But as there's more development and as more people move into that area, the more complaints of noise come. And it becomes a quality-of-life issue."
Johnson will be deploying some officers during peak motorcycle riding times to listen for noise and write citations.
"My hope is that people will know the law and not come rip-roaring up Ocean Boulevard," Johnson said. "If they do, they will be cited."
