Noise pollution. Why would you want to promote it, OP?
BTW: All aftermarket exhausts did not become illegal in California on Jan. 1, 2019. Every exhaust system that was legal last year is still legal this year. It did just become a lot easier for California cops to hit you with a fine if you are breaking the existing rules, though.
Also - it's not only California : every state has different laws relating to muffler delete alterations, but for the most part, it's illegal. Most states require all vehicles have a working muffler to prevent excessively loud or unusual noises, but adding a muffler delete or similar device to your vehicle is illegal.
Why don't you check some facts before starting a thread?

I wish they would apply the rule to Harleys.
Well hey don't wanna get the elderly and the deaf even more deaf
Im surprised that the California cops are not using this law to look for smog bypasses. Before reading the law I thought thats what this really was about, but its really just for noise.
I would normally say I dont care about loud exhaust, because I dont. Im a show guy, not a go guy. But I do wonder what they would sneakily pass next.
