I talked to a police officer about this today and he said the law was "tweaked"-it pretty much gives them a means to write someone if their exhaust is obnoxious.

He stated aftermarket exhausts are fine as long as they aren't blatantly loud.

I like the fact that the law does provide an objective means of proving the legality of ones system using the J-1169. The Tanabe Medalion Touring was under 93 db using the same method according to Tanabe's in house testing so it would be good to go here in Maine. That's the exhaust I'm planning on buying.

Anyone know what the Nitto would test at?
