Is it impossible to design motorcycles with proper mufflers? Wisconsin law states that you can`t install a noisier exhaust than factory pipes (which are federally regulated for noise). The trick is enforcement. Minneapolis Police Sgt. William Palmer said he thought enforcing such laws was unlikely because officers didn`t have the right equipment. He added that he had never known anyone who gave a ticket for loud motorcycle whistles – but that doesn`t mean it can`t happen. He says officials are more likely to give quotes or warnings to cars that play loud music. Although most will associate this with Harley-Davidson models, I think it is safe to say that even foreign models are subject to the same problem: the installation of modified exhausts. “If I wanted to modify my bike to make it faster, or something like that, the muffler is the first thing to do,” said Bryan Hoch, who repairs bikes at Fridley. An interactive map showing each state`s exhaust noise laws provided by SAN can be viewed here. I think it`s one of those things where people just tolerate it for some reason. Probably more cultural acceptance than anything else. He`s one of my big pets, and I love motorcycles. In addition, “no silencer or exhaust system of a vehicle shall be equipped with a stop, bypass or similar device, and the exhaust system of such a vehicle shall not be equipped with a system which ignites the exhaust gas in order to produce flames inside or outside the exhaust system”.
As soon as it`s hot, the idiots go out, spinning their motorcycles and walking around in large groups. For motorcycles and cars, the state muffler law applies. It states, inter alia: “Every motor vehicle shall at all times be equipped with a well-functioning silencer which mixes exhaust noise with the overall noise of the vehicle and which operates continuously to avoid excessive or unusual noise, and no person shall use a cut-off, bypass or similar muffler on a motor vehicle travelling on a road or motorway. The exhaust system shall not emit or produce high-pitched crackling or crackling. It`s easy with noisy exhausts. If your exhaust system is broken, fix it. If you purchased an exhaust system that was not originally supplied for the vehicle or motorcycle, make sure it is not unreasonably noisy. When asked if he understood the motorcycle noise law, he replied, “Basically, which is not strong enough to get caught, but no one really knows what it is.” Recently, I received a call from a citizen asking me what we were doing about noisy vehicles and motorcycles, especially motorcycles. In many of these situations, the exhaust systems are modified so that the noise coming directly from the engine is only slightly disturbed, resulting in an extremely boring experience for everyone in the area. The Wisconsin state legislature states that no one should modify the exhaust system of such a motor vehicle in a way that “amplifies or increases the noise emitted by the engine.” The legislator also mentions that the exhaust system should not be modified to increase noise beyond what the original muffler installed in the vehicle emits it. However, for ATVs and UTVs, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources says these vehicles must have an exhaust system with a spark arrestor and must not be louder than 96 decibels.
That`s fine, if they gave quotes, wouldn`t all Harley/similar machines have a noisy exhaust The law also states that exhaust systems cannot be “modified in such a way as to amplify or increase the noise of the engine above that of the original muffler installed in the vehicle.” Each state has its own regulations/rules regarding muffler/exhaust systems. In Maine, a muffler or exhaust system must not emit noise greater than 95 decibels. In several states, including Michigan and Pennsylvania, the decibel limit varies depending on how fast the vehicle is moving. MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — We`ve all heard that noise — a motorcycle that`s so loud it can hurt your ears. Some bikers say they do it to be safer on the road, but being too noisy is against Minnesota law. I hate noisy pipes, I just skipped buying one of my favorite motorcycles because someone put a noisier exhaust and it will be impossible to buy the original exhaust. As the weather warms up and the snow melts, more vehicles can be seen on Wisconsin`s roads, some louder than others. But what are Wisconsin`s laws on exhaust gases and mufflers? For your information, replacing the muffler is not the same as changing the exhaust. I know of several laws that regulate exhaust gases but do not prohibit mufflers. If you are attached to your exhaust system, you can use it in the insulation of your own home. However, once you are on the public road, you now fall under our rules as a company and, yes, you will be held accountable.
I know what motorcycles you are referring to and they are ridiculously noisy, it is not necessary. I ride a quiet 250 and I can`t even count the number of times people have grown up together as if I didn`t exist. Whether you like it or not, even if it`s anecdotal evidence, if you`re stronger, you`ll get noticed. If you are noticed, your chances of being crushed are lower. I`d rather keep my bike quiet (I want my next bike to be electric), but with the number of times I`ve been cut because people don`t bother to check visually and I don`t make enough noise for them to hear it, I`ve saved up for a spare exhaust. There is a difference between being strong enough to be noticed and strong enough to damage the eardrums, and I can easily agree with you that this volume is ridiculous. I know drivers who wear earplugs while driving to avoid their own exhaust note, they are the people who deserve a ticket. The following is Wisconsin State Law 347.39 (1), which covers noisy exhaust: “Increasing the noise level of a motorcycle by changing the muffler disturbs other motorists as well as residents on roads and highways. Changing the muffler may also void the manufacturer`s warranty,” said State Patrol Superintendent David Collins. “There are very good reasons not to change the original muffler. But perhaps the best reason is that it is illegal and can lead to an expensive quote. “I think all officers and soldiers will take action if they can,” said Lt.
Robert Zak of the Minnesota State Patrol. “We don`t have this equipment in our cars, but we can tell pretty easily which compounds, what`s factory, which is normal exhaust noise.” Does the legal motorcycle exemption literally have to exist for their owners to show how cool their noisy motorcycles are? A few weeks ago, a “tub run” crossed the middle of the city. It was boring. I wanted to go out and start sticking sticks into the shelves. I`m not suggesting that every bike be made in neon green and that all riders have to wear a Day-Glo kit – but it`s still your responsibility to be seen the same way it`s the other rider`s responsibility to see you. He says he used to ride a noisy bike because of the “cool factor,” but became calmer as he got older. Cord Buckner is an administrative lieutenant with the Wausau Police Department.

That`s half the reason I own a bike. “But I didn`t have a place to move” – shouldn`t you always have an “out”? I know I intend to do this when I encounter traffic.
Where do I go when this idiot does ____? We all enjoy our own musical tastes, and we all love listening to it as we travel to and from our destinations. It is believed that if the music is good at low volume, it will be even better at a higher volume.
