No they mean tach.... I had a reporter here in my shop the other day. He and I had a long discussion about this bill. Totally ridiculous. Too restrictive. Noise is Noise, but to ban any and all aftermarket exhaust is too far. Lots of older bikes have to go to the aftermarket when their stock exhaust is damaged or rotted out. OEM only produces parts for so long before they become obsolete! If you can't put aftermarkets on, then what? Retire the bike? Not fair. Also the style issue there are plenty of aftermarket pipe designs that meet the DB test, why make everyone suffer? I understand the issue with loud pipes, back in my younger days I had straights on my Sportster.(Really used to like the looks I got in Wolfeboro) But nowadays on my touring bike I have after market pipes that meet the standards for noise. I ask everyone on here, please call your local reps, tell them to vote no on HB 95.
