I'm sure the "kiddie abuse little bitty motorcycle makers assn" will
file
for an exemption, if it hasn't already. Such exemptions are common
when
a
new "blanket" regulation has unforeseen consequences. That is,
assuming
the motorcycle manufacturers and their sale agents have the brains to
push
for it.
How was it decided which motorcycles were for kids? Engine
displacement?
Here's an idea: if this reg will impact your kid, advise her to
switch
her
hobby to something that will help here succeed in life. You know,
math,
spelling, geography, English, science...
If JustHate wants to help rather than complain... he should encourage
development of a practical electric engine kiddie motorcycle.- Hide

First off dolt, the ban has nothing to do with the type of engine,
although I a sure the greenies had something to do with it.. You
should really have read the article before acting like an idiot...


As to Harry's tripe I did not say Obama or Bush. Unlike you idiots I
don't post everything with a political slant.. The companies have been
trying to get a waiver for them, but again, the greens are probably
deep into this. They have used a portion of a bill that doesn't allow
lead over 600 ppm in products "marketed" to children under 13 so bikes
under 85 cc's are effected. Watch out though, your kids XBox has lead
solder, and there are many other toys and such coming down the road
with this one.. Fact is, most kids, even little ones don't chew on
their motorcycles, but the lawmakers know that... Either way, it is
just another way to attack the industry...


Despite your paranoia and other mental illnesses, it is unlikely the
regulations were passed to "attack the (kiddie motorcycle) industry.
Rather, to date, the kiddie motorcycle industry has thus far been
ineffective in getting an exemption.


It would be a good idea to ban entirely for safety reasons kiddie
motorcycles, but that isn't in the cards.


Tell you what...write and call regulators with your usual persuasive
manner and style, and I'm sure you'll never get the exemptions you seek.


Oh...my kids are too old for video games, and my grandkids' parents push
books on them, not video games.

And you, Donnie Boy, could serve as a reminder of the damage that can
be done to a baby's brain by being in the birth canal just a little
too long during birthing.
