I was just rereading the epa regs. on modifying vechicles for highway use. Seems that motorbikes are drawing their attention again. Seems scary that even a simple change of a sprocket or even different size tire could make you in violation of epa rules, not to mention all the motor mods we do. If they choose to inforce the already existing laws appartently we are subject to a 10,000 dollar per day fine.

So I guess we are OK since we own motorcycles, and not motorbikes. Vegas

The whole idea is to help promote the gvt agenda to get rid of all those horrid non-conforming biker people and convert them into regular, easily bullied sheep.

Yes, and remember, participating in oral sex is illegal in something like 20 states. No, I'm not kidding.

Absurd laws written by absurd people in tiny windowless rooms who know nothing about what they're legislating -- aah, the American Way.

Can you tell I work with a lot of Feds in my job? :P
