RE: Emissions testing
With the exception of the VRSC (V-Rod) family, 2007 models do not use a catalyst type of muffler. The use of Oxygen sensors in the header pipe to providefeedback to the fuel injection system eliminates the need for the catalyst mufflers on regular production bikes.[/align][/align]Catalyst mufflers are required on 110 cubic inch performance kits and on CVO (Screamin Eagle) models that have the 110 cubic inch motor.[/align][/align]2007 models are 50 state compliant for California and all other states even without cat's.[/align]

California never had any plans but 2010. Manufacturers that make more than 300 bikes/year will need to meet certain standards towards that goal every year between now and then. (Hence the new engine and lean condition.) And for those of you living elsewhere, it is a federal standard so you will be effected also. If you build your own it should be exempt for as long as "you" own it.

Not true. California emissions testing was scheduled to begin April 1, 2007. A concerted effort by the president of the Cal HD dealer's association resulted in CARB backing down at the last minute. They agreed that motorcycle emission testing would be a huge costly-to-enforce nightmare. There are new emission standards for manufacturers as you said, based on numbers produced. Are you an ABATE member and/or supporter? You'd be supporting motorcyclists rights and know a lot more about this important topic.
