| HB1442 - Noise Bill Frequently Asked Questions |
1. Who will perform the tests?
ANSWER: The tests will be performed by
the SAME individuals that are in place
TODAY; such as the inspection stations
during your yearly inspection or through a
*vehicle* safety inspection road stop.
These are legal as long as they do not
pull over JUST motorcycles. If they do,
please let us know!
2. Where will the tests be performed?
ANSWER: As specified in the new
procedure (SAE J2825) - tests need to be
perform outdoors as to not have sound
reverberated off walls/solid objects. That
means inspection stations - and yes - the
roadside if necessary as it is today. For a
little bit more info - here's the youtube
video on it.
3. Will it be a primary cause to pull
motorcycles over?
ANSWER: NO! The same laws of TODAY
apply under this new law. If you are
running straight pipes, then yes. If not -
then you will be okay. Again - same
situations as today. THEY CAN NOT PULL
YOU OVER JUST FOR "THINKING" you
might be too loud! That part of the bill
has been removed!
4. What if we don't have a "tach" on
our bikes, will we have to allow toothed
clamps on our wiring?"
ANSWER: NO! Not sure where you are
getting this information, but they can't do
that today! Police are NOT supposed to
"touch your bike" with the clamps you
mention. NOW - to your real question.
In order to do test the sound of your bike
- the test will be performed at an idle and
should be 92 dB or less. There is a 2 dB
variance and as long as you are with in
that zone, you are fine. If you aren't in
that zone and are "louder", then a more
involved test will be performed on your
bike which will require you to increase
your RPMs to 2000 during a "sweep" test.
If you do not have a tach - the
tester/inspector will have a meter that
will measure the RPMs by the sound
vibrations from your engine. THERE WILL
BE NO CLAMPS.
5. How would this impact me and/or
my motorcycle?
ANSWER: The major difference between
SAE J2825 testing procedure and our
existing procedure is that this test is at
an idle. This makes it easier for the
person testing and for you - in that you
don't have to worry about brining the
RPMs up to 2800 like you do today.
Beyond that, if you pass an inspection
today, you will more than likely pass this
testing process also.
The major difference between now and
the SAE J2825 is that this new procedure
is more accurate and appropriate in that
the test was developed specifically for
"street bikes". The "old procedure",
believe it or now was meant for "off road
motorcycles" - aka dirt bikes.
If you have any additional questions -
please send them a long and we can
add them into our list!
