Well today was an interesting ride, I was cruising on the speed limit (for a change) so was very suprised when a highway patrol car pulled me over. I thought maybe I was going a little over the speed limit (?). Then he walked up and started going over my bike, was this copper a triumph fan? Well then I understood when he said those pipes ae a little loud aren't they?
He told me to follow him to a roadside truck stop where the police and Environment protection authority were checking over a few modified cars.
Anyway the bottom line is that they measured my bike at 113db which is a $500 fine and I need to get it re-tested <93db within 21 days! For a little pride they told me that my bike was the loudest vehicle they had tested today!
