EPA may relax custom bike certification
With all the custom choppers and Harley clones being built, the US EPA cracked down and basically said people could only build one non-complying bike each. This actually shut down some of the small custom shops that didn’t have the resources to do a full EPA certification test. Now it looks like there is some relief (and sanity) coming. The proposal is to let the small builders use currently certified engines as long as they are not modified. WebBikeWorld has the whole story here.
