Re: bogus exhaust tickets!
screw va and its crappy laws.....thats my opinion....i say there should be a db law here and thats it. i dont see what the big deal is with putting an aftermarket exhaust on a car is anyways...i mean its not like there are to many imports or muscle cars running the roads of virginia that make as much damn noise as when you have a damn motorcycle rolling down the road daytime or night reving every 2 damn seconds...laws here are way outdated

Harleys are loud, and in most cases louder and more obnoxious, but I think it's easier for me to find it in my heart to forgive them for being obnoxious because you know that they're actually moving and going somewhere when they're creating all this racket ...unlike that obnoxious Honda Civic rolling down the street. "WaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA WHEEEEEEEEEEE woooooooooooo WHEEEEEEEEEE" and squealing tires through the intersection but not really moving much..

Re: bogus exhaust tickets!
After 2 exhaust tickets, I gave up and got rid of my N1 for a nice stock exhaust. Now I dont ever worry about being pulled over and I can actually have a conversation in my car again.
