[maxrom]

Hy,unk:
Here, in the hell of Quebec province the SAAQ have a project of new law against motorcycle loud pipes.:damn angry:
So;
They catch me in Rimouski on main street,
Folowed by cop car to the sound test facility,:bang head:

The 1200 sporster before me had 103db / 100db for a 163.00$ tiket,:damn angry:

With my DELKEVIC i raise the meter at 101.2db / 100db for zero tiket,:clapping:

He told me; Lucky you are the project hask 2db over the 100db to give the tiket, but your muffler aren`tn stock and it`s illegal:bang head:

:biglaugh:So, i`m now riding a shop-vac (put back the stock mufflers):biglaugh:

but your muffler aren`tn stock and it`s illegal

We have a law like that here in Maine. Thought non-stock mufflers can pass inspection, any muffler other than stock is still illegal, because it is not stock.

This caused an issue for one of my friends who owns a 900 Eliminator. He literally had to get tons of document proof that he was completely unable to find a stock muffler for his bike (I guess that they no longer make them) before he was able to get an exemption for his muffler.

verry interesting:ummm:
I have a friend who dose have an eliminator (with Replica Zxr1200 engine, mod with drive shaft)
he found stock muffler 10 years ago and he also had a hell of work to found it

Any lawyer should have a field day w/that. How many older cars have a stock muffler? Not a one I'd bet. Did it come from Honda, from Ford, etc? No? Then it's not "stock!" What about all the jap rice-burner Civics w/'fart-cans?' Tickets, please! If you don't it's unequal enforcement of the law, discriminating against two-wheeled vehicles. Every Midas Muffler shop should be closed, as it's not installing a 'stock' muffler.

This was much more recent... it might be that your friend got one of the VERY few remaining ones.

-Yeap,
-Absolutly thrue; most of time, cars don`t have stock muffler.

-But Governement (SAAQ) says they start ``sound check project of law`` with motorcycle, also; motorcycle & scooters will be the only ones needed to be stock mufflered (hum! a new word:rofl_200
-Cars will be in the target when the ``project law`` become a ``full law``

Racer 400cc and up = 1127$
Biker class on driver license = extra 100%
Cars = 275%

to these fees you need material protection for others with private insurance, fees wich is around

I would challenge the testing method in court. Equipment/Training/maintenance/operation. You still have an argument on targetting motorcycles only. Also they shouldn't be able to retroactively target older vehicles. Lots of issues with noise laws.
