Mayoral Prostitution with the LOUD Biker Cult[ure] via Biker Rallies – Daytona, FL

Mayoral Prostitution with LOUD Biker Cult[ure] at “Bike Week” – Daytona, FL

During my 31-year tenure with the Houston PD, I served the citizens of Houston as a Motorcycle Patrol Officer, Radio Patrol Officer and in Air Support.

During my enforcement years, I cited, incarcerated, untold numbers of “men” who operated illegally LOUD motorcycles, auto’s, trucks, on our public roadways and these, with intent and some in ignorance, audibly abused the children, the elderly, the handicapped, the families, living and seeking a good daily quality of life, those who lived and worked in my areas of responsibility.

Furthermore, I’ve never understood why and how city leaders, mayors, of some of our largest municipalities in the United States e.g., Daytona, FL are permitted to whore themselves for tax revenue, graft, money, with the LOUD Biker Cult[ure] via illegal biker rallies; this, while the citizens of these municipalities are audibly assaulted day and night with illegal vehicular NOISE…these same citizens are the people, the families, these “mayors” took an oath to protect and serve.

Florida’s Motor Vehicle Nose Law,

316.293 Motor vehicle noise.—

(5) NOISE ABATEMENT EQUIPMENT MODIFICATIONS.—

(a) No person shall modify the exhaust system of a motor vehicle or any other noise-abatement device of a motor vehicle operated or to be operated upon the highways of this state in such a manner that the noise emitted by the motor vehicle is above that emitted by the vehicle as originally manufactured.

(b) No person shall operate a motor vehicle upon the highways of the state with an exhaust system or noise-abatement device so modified.

I’ve never understood why a man or woman would illegally modify a motor vehicle to emit illegal noise emissions in multiples (algorithmically) the legal, safe, total, noise emissions of 80dB(A) and do so absent care or concern.

To this very day, I remain baffled by those who ride and drive LOUD and think their behavior is somehow cool coupled with bravado when in reality, these are selfish bullies who abuse the innocent among us; essentially, domestic terrorists.

I’ve owned some 30-motorcycles since age 12 and I’ve accumulated hundreds-of-thousands-of-miles on those motorcycles, professionally and for pleasure. Why do far too many “men” find riding LOUD to be acceptable when Federal and State laws prohibit same specifically for the safety and quality of life of the American citizen?

LOUD Biker Narcissism in Florida…

LOUD Biker Narcissism in Florida…

Every “custom exhaust” that is not properly tested and labeled by the US EPA IS illegal. 99% of aftermarket exhausts do NOT conform to the noise suppression requirements of the EPA mandates as per the SAE J331a full throttle testing procedure. You might “mind your own business” with LOUD exhausts but you destroy the daily quality of life of those who live and thrive in our communities.

I hate bullies…those who abuse children, the elderly, our handicapped, our families, with illegal, intrusive, physiologically dangerous, NOISE. There is a reason the mufflers on street use motorcycles are regulated, labeled, carefully tested and total motorcycle noise emissions limited to a relatively quiet 80dB(A) and your arrogance and your narcissism and your selfishness and your LOUD cult don’t trump this fact.

Florida Statutes Title XXIII. Motor Vehicles § 316.293. Motor vehicle noise

Current as of January 01, 2023

5) Noise abatement equipment modifications.–

(a) No person shall modify the exhaust system of a motor vehicle or any other noise-abatement device of a motor vehicle operated or to be operated upon the highways of this state in such a manner that the noise emitted by the motor vehicle is above that emitted by the vehicle as originally manufactured.

(b) No person shall operate a motor vehicle upon the highways of the state with an exhaust system or noise-abatement device so modified.

Loud Biker Facebook Group…”Senior Motorcyclists 50+” – shameful!

Thanks for accepting me into “Senior Motorcyclists 50+”…

Thank you for acceptance into this motorcycling group. I have owned approximately 30-motorcycles since age 12 and accumulated hundreds-of-thousands-of-miles on motorcycles while riding professionally as a motorcycle officer, long distance touring as well as a daily commuter in Houston traffic.

Over the years, I have become increasingly concerned about an abusive and illegal group of “LOUD bikers” who have turned the once honorable sport of motorcycling into a form of “domestic terrorism” via the operation of an illegally modified or illegally equipped motorcycle that abuses, daily, our children, our elderly, our handicapped, our families, destroying daily quality with illegal motorcycle NOISE; illegal aftermarket exhausts like the Vance and Hines “Big Radius” illegally LOUD exhaust pictured on this group’s main page photo. Our naive society has become conditioned to this abusive, dangerous, LOUD motor vehicle plague as the general public is unaware of the physiological dangers of unregulated motor vehicle NOISE.

I would personally like to see those who abuse our society with illegal motorcycle, auto, truck, NOISE cited, incarcerated, their illegally equipped motorcycles, auto’s, trucks, impounded until same is returned to quiet OEM status as per the Federal Code of Regulations, CFR 40 Part 205, a relatively quiet 80dB(A), properly labeled. The attached article expresses my concern and provides a viable solution to the LOUD motor vehicle thuggery in the United States that is more accurately defined as “domestic terrorism.” Kudos and respect to those who ride legally, respectfully, honorably, with their OEM-quiet-factory installed mufflers.

How does man attain perfection in order to please our Heavenly Father? Matthew 5:48

Jesus commands that we be “perfect” (Matthew 5:48); therefore, how does a sinner attain perfection and thereby please the Father?

If man was capable of keeping the Law unto perfection, Jesus died needlessly (Galatians 2:21); therefore, the only “perfection” offered mankind is the sinless perfection of Jesus gifted-imputed into the life of the one who “believes” by faith that Jesus is Messiah who died for them (John 3; 2 Corinthians 5:21) thereby initiating New Covenant promise of forgiveness (Hebrews 8:12) and subsequently a life lived through the indwelling Holy Spirit via daily Christian sanctification (Ephesians 1:13-14; Galatians 5:16), a life producing divine “fruit” that honors the Father (John 15:8) and fruit that will endure the BEMA Judgment of Messiah (Galatians 5:16-23; 1 Corinthians 3:10-15).

Divine Perfection is NOT attainable in this life via human effort as we’re all sinners under condemnation (Romans 3:23; Romans 8:1+); therefore, Jesus offers us His perfection via His blood atonement if we will trust in Him as our “perfect” “sinless” Messiah (1 Peter 1:18-19) and thereby find peace with our Heavenly Father via what Jesus did for us at Golgotha (Matthew 26:28), not what we can do for ourselves through vain attempts to keep laws, days, diets, traditions (Galatians 2:16; Romans 5:1).

Loud Thug Bikers & the Acoustical Assurance Period (AAP) – obfuscation

Video: https://youtu.be/iSSgwlixuE4

Acoustical Assurance Period – obfuscation

First of all, the obfuscation/misinterpretation by the Motorcycle Rights Organizations relevant to the U.S. EPA/Code of Federal Regulation’s “Acoustical Assurance Period” (AAP) located at Title 40 → Chapter I → Subchapter G → Part 205 → Subpart D → §205.152

See: https://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/text-idx?SID=d2d0ed3881013fdb0749ea2d54013cf7&mc=true&node=se40.27.205_1152&rgn=div8

(3) Street motorcycles must be designed, built and equipped so that, when properly maintained and used, they will not produce noise emissions in excess of the levels specified in paragraph (a)(1) of this section, for an Acoustical Assurance Period of one year or a distance of 6000 km (3730 mi) after the time of sale to the ultimate purchaser, whichever occurs first.

Don’t believe the obfuscation: The Motorcycle Rights Organization’s will attempt to defer or negate LOUD Biker culpability for illegally removing the OEM – Factory-installed motorcycle muffler and replacing same with an illegally loud NOT FOR ROAD USE muffler by obfuscating, misinterpreting the meaning and intent of the Acoustical Assurance Period.

Loud Biker advocates will tell you that the stock/OEM, quiet, factory-installed muffler is only “good” for 3730 miles or one-year from the time of retail/sale.  NOT TRUE – the original, U.S. EPA approved, factory-installed muffler is intended to remain in compliance for the LIFE OF THE MOTORCYCLE according to the author of the AAP, Kenneth Feith (Former EPA Employee).  The AAP is simply a “warranty period” required by the EPA from the manufacturer to the consumer to ensure the acoustical integrity of the factory-installed muffler…for more information, please see:

“Noisy Motorcycles: An Environmental Quality-of-Life-Issue” (see Pages 2 & 19 or Ctrl F “Life of”) http://www.noisefree.org/Motorcyle-Report.pdf

ACOUSTICAL ASSURANCE PERIOD (Excerpts from article)

“The regulation includes an Acoustical Assurance Period (AAP), which specifies a relatively short period during which a motorcycle’s noise abatement elements must be in compliance with the federal regulation during street usage.  Some have interpreted this to mean that, once the AAP has expired, the regulation no longer applies.  This wording of the regulation needs clarification that noise emissions limits apply for the life of the motorcycle.”

 “The EPA should make clear in the regulatory requirements that the tampering provisions apply to all persons for the life of the motorcycle.  In other words, noise limits for owners/operators remain in effect for the life of the motorcycle and do not expire at the end of the AAP.”

“Loud Pipes Save Lives” – Do Loud Exhausts on Motorcycles increase safety?

Loud Pipes Save Lives (The Lie)

The impotent mantra often cited by the narcissist who abuses their fellow citizens with illegal motorcycle noise is “I ride LOUD because Loud Pipes Save Lives.” Personally, having owned some 30-motorcycles since age 12 and having ridden professionally for years, Loud Pipes Save Lives is a lie, it’s obfuscation for illegal, abusive, behavior as illegally loud exhausts make the rider less safe through exponentially increased rider fatigue; through inadvertently invoking a “fight or flight response” from adjacent operators of motor vehicles who make unpredictable avoidance maneuvers when startled by the illegal, intrusive, noise passing and white-lining under acceleration; also, the illegally loud exhausts stymie the warning sirens of approaching emergency motor vehicles creating a hazardous scenario for the motorcyclist as well as every motor vehicle operator, bicyclist, pedestrian, in their vicinity as they approach a busy intersection. For all intents and purposes, in order for LOUD exhausts on motorcycles to be effective for safety concerns, the exhaust would have to be pointed forward where 75%+ of motorcycle hazards exist; specifically, vehicles turning left into the path of the approaching motorcycle; therefore, bright colored clothing, operating with headlight on, wearing a DOT approved motorcycle helmet, are actual safety measures, not illegal NOISE.
