I did here about that. But he had a shop where he was doing lots of motorcycles. I've never heard of them troubling and individual person who did one vehicle.

And yes, there's a big difference between IN and CA. Here in IN we have no inspections whatsoever--emissions or safety. In CA, they actually have roadside checkpoints in some places.

BTW, removing diesel emissions equiptment is extrodinarily common. I put up a poll over at Cumminsforum. Of the several hundered who responded, around 70% had removed. Granted, that's not representative of the general population, but still.
