I agree with you there. I have a cherry bomb exhaust and when i got pulled over there was a Transport truck beside me with a blown muffler and a harley behind me. I find it hard to believe he heard me at all. I tried to fight it in court stating that the db was below and what the stats on a truck and harley etc were but the judge was a douche. She said since it was not a "dealer" muffler it was illegal. WTF?? I have never heard of such a rule! Then how do any other companies stay in business. It all depends on the cop and how they feel that day. I paid my fine and moved on I think i have had 3 in the last 2 years.
