Some odd bits to it

1. You can have speakers in your helmet, not limited to 1. "Helmet Speakers No Restrictions"
2. Muffler required. No cut-outs. No modifications to increase noise beyond that emitted by the original muffler installed on the vehicle.
3. One (L) required by law(mirror) = hmm I'm not legal  .
4. Eye protection-Required by Law

Now out of those 3 here is the kicker "Turn singles - Not Required " .. really..


"""Lane Splitting Not authorized." (insert very sad sad face)

Oh and radar detectors or not legal here, but "Radar Detector No Restriction" lol..

that's odd. Blue lights around here can get you pulled over by an officer in a bad mood.

Blue LIGHTS will get you pulled over. However that 1" blue INSERT will not!

well the blue lens thing is just that a lens.

Michigan is the same as Kentucky's, at least for what you listed. Minus the exhaust bit, I believe we have a decibel limit here.

many places things considered illegal are "tolerated" as long as youre not abusing it err pushing it

City's here have them, my sister was pulled over in city for exhaust being to loud some years back (cracked manifold). I don't think she got a ticket though. Most cops hardly enforce the city's ordinance about loud exhaust though. If they did all these mustangs and those annoying import with the buzzing stupid exhaust mufflers would be screwed around here.

The blue/purple insert is this:

They are legal in a lot of places, including Australia and are popular with hot rodders and street rodders. I used to have some in my old Datsun roadster.

I always referred to them as Chevy Dots because that seems to be where I kept seeing them.

They come like this (cheap plastic ones available from Amazon.com BTW) and you drill a hole in the lens and and glue them in place.

Good quality ones feature real blue glass and polished stainless steel rims.

What's the purpose behind installing colored led lighting under/body glow on a car or motorcycle, lifting/lowering a car/truck/motorcycle, etc? Or why does adidasguy use smoked lenses in all of his turn signals & tail lights? Because he/they can, and because it looks good to the owner.

That does not answer the question, for it to be listed under laws it as to have a purpose for them to even discuss it and place it with in that law.

I would just put one on because I read on an online forum it was legal to do so

The blue dots were standard on some high-end cars back in the 30s (Packard and others IIRC).

Some people claim (urban legend?) they were used on doctors cars so cops wouldn't pull them over. Grandpa era street racers fitted them to try and fool the cops. Post WW2 hot rodders liked the look and started using them.

Good quality glass blue dots do produce a really bright light when the brakes are applied and in the day when cars had 6v electrical systems and tail lights were much smaller than modern cars, they might have been more visible from a greater distance.

This is an extract from Australian Federal Government regulations for Street Rods:

QuoteAUSTRALIAN VEHICLE STANDARDS RULES - REG 88

Performance of tail lights
(1) When on, a tail light of a vehicle must:

    (a)     show a red light visible 200 metres from the rear of the vehicle; and

    (b)     not use over 7 watts power.

    (2)     A tail light fitted to a street rod vehicle may incorporate a blue lens not over 20 millimetres in diameter.

    (3)     A street rod vehicle is a vehicle that has been modified for safe road use and that:

    (a)     has a body and frame that were built before 1949; or

    (b)     is a replica of a vehicle the body and frame of which were built before 1949.

Interesting stuff from Ohio...http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/4501

(ZZ) "Motorcycle" means a motor vehicle with motive power having a seat or saddle for the use of the operator, designed to travel on not more than three wheels in contact with the ground, and having no occupant compartment top or occupant compartment top that can be installed or removed by the user.

http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/4511.53
No Ape Hangers:  No bicycle or motorcycle shall be used to carry more persons at one time than the number for which it is designed and equipped. No motorcycle shall be operated on a highway when the handlebars rise higher than the shoulders of the operator when the operator is seated in the operator's seat or saddle.

Other interesting tidbits: "Motorcycle" means every motor vehicle, other than a tractor, having a seat or saddle for the use of the operator and designed to travel on not more than three wheels in contact with the ground, including, but not limited to, motor vehicles known as "motor-driven cycle," "motor scooter," "cab-enclosed motorcycle," or "motorcycle" without regard to weight or brake horsepower.

Apparently you're not familiar with politics in the USA. Many laws of this nature are pet projects of some lawmaker's constituents. All it takes is one lawmaker getting enough backing to write/modify something of this nature into law. Google "blue laws" if you want to see some if the silly things that have been signed into law in various states.

I know silly laws, just look up "funny state laws" and you will be laughing for hours. I was only saying there had to be some kind of reason for it to even be brought up to be placed on that law, which is what i was asking for. None the less it was answered above good enough for me
