ok so a freind of mine talks me in to riding to sydney so she can ride back with me..thats all good  but when we got to port macquarie a happy copper rolled up on her,tailed her for a while then whack on go the lights etc...we werent speeding or doing anything wrong.

she has v and hines radius pipes on her sporty  .

said copper nails her for noise ...now that was nsw  and we are in qld..

what i want to know is do we have to wait for the notice in the mail or can we just take the notice he gave her....and does anyone know of a test place in tweed heads

rant over..thanks in advance

cant nail ya without a proper roadside test in victoria...ie proof.. here, they have to send you to get tested (if not a proper roadside test with mics tripod.etc etc)is it same up there?

How come you didn't get pinged too, sic puppy? You running stiockies or something?

bonkerz,,mate I only have the screaming budgie slip ons atm so mine isn,t that loud....but he did come up to my bike and gave me a lecture about them...

anyway we have found new stock pipes for the sporty. and while we were there I picked up a modified header for the streetglide

In NSW there is no requirement to actually prove that the exhaust is above the decibel rating to get sent to the EPA. The exhaust just has to appear to be too loud and you can be referred to EPA for noise test. I've heard of a few cases where neighbours have called EPA to complain about the noise of a bike and the EPA has sent them out a letter to have the bike tested. Just about all after market exhausts will fail the EPA test. I have heard that the Screamin eagle 1's, slip ons are boarder line.
