I love NY . State passed a law that you need to have factory exhaust on vehicles to pass inspection. Cars and trucks the station are letting them slide a little as long as it not excessive. Bikes they won’t even look at them if they are aftermarket . Glad I kept the originals for my bikes . Now my bikes aren’t super loud nice rumble down low but as soon as the station sees the pipes it’s a no go

I'd be screwed in my state, if they did that. All my bike have aftermarket exhausts and I do not have any of the stock stuff.

here in Idaho we did have testing ,but only for Boise and surrounding close cities ,, I tried 6 times to pass and couldnt satisfy them ,,and finally after them tries ,,they did away with testing ,, I spent around a $3 thousand on cats muffler tail pipes ,carburater ,, and still could not pass ,,and did not have the stuff that came with the truck to put back.. New York should at least give the rural people a pass ..

2022 but since they didn’t put any funds into the bill the police can’t really enforce it . So they are making private citizens (inspection techs) do their dirty work

Bikes have no emission tests . It’s simply a harassment tactic to stop noise . They tried to pass an emissions testing program for bikes but they got stopped since it’s not like a car you have to take apart a good deal of the bike to get to the computer port . Shops said they wouldn’t do it .

New York there’s no emissions testing on 25 years or older vehicles . Just a safety inspection

Oh man. I don't envy you.

I put the wife's Yukon in the shop last week to have the rear main seal replaced and the dash pulled out to repair the drivers side temp control. It blows hot on drivers side and cold on drinkers side. We were just on an out of state trip weekend before last and it wasn't pleasant behind the wheel I'll tell ya.
We just got back from picking the truck up a few minutes ago. They did everything except the most important thing, fix the ac. Miscommunication it seems. So we had to leave it again. Mama is NOT happy, therefore I am NOT happy. We are having 97-99* temps this week.
Sucks not being able to do the things I used to do.
