A small win, but Michigan is still in this fight! 👇California Backs Down on Proposed Motorcycle Emissions Regulations: A Victory for Riders EverywhereThe California Air Resources Board (CARB) has announced its decision not to proceed with its proposed amendments to on-road motorcycle emission standards, testing procedures, onboard diagnostics, and zero-emission motorcycle requirements. This decision marks a major victory for motorcyclists who believe in the right to choose their ride and resist excessive regulatory overreach.This development comes after CARB canceled two public hearings on the matter, one initially scheduled for January and the other for October. The withdrawal of this plan demonstrates the power of collective resistance and the growing acknowledgment that motorcyclists should not be unfairly targeted or restricted in their options.For many riders, this fight was about more than emissions standards. It’s about preserving their freedom to choose the bikes they love. The proposed changes would have pushed manufacturers and consumers alike toward zero-emission motorcycles, potentially limiting the availability of traditional combustion engine models. While cleaner technologies are an important part of our future, riders across the nation have argued that these changes should come through innovation and market demand—not government mandates.Here in Michigan, we’ve seen our fair share of regulations that trample on the rights of motorcyclists. Whether it’s helmet laws or insurance requirements, bikers have long been fighting for the freedom to make their own decisions. This victory in California is a reminder that our voices matter and that we must stay vigilant against efforts to limit our rights as riders.The cancellation of CARB’s proposed amendments shows that grassroots advocacy works. It also sets a precedent for other states considering similar restrictions, signaling that motorcyclists won’t back down when their freedom is on the line.As riders, we are no strangers to adversity. From weathering harsh roads to pushing back against unfair policies, we have always risen to the challenge. Let’s celebrate this win, but also remain united in protecting the lifestyle we hold dear.For those of us who ride with purpose, this victory is not just about California—it’s about standing up for what we believe in, wherever we are.Ride free, ride proud, ⚡️RIDE with PURPOSE⚡️To stay up to date on the happenings, I urge you to join your local motorcycle rights organization.

⚖Can You Sue At-Fault Drunk Driver?If a drunk driver causes a motorcycle accident, there is, obviously, a negligence case against the driver. If the vehicle the drunk is driving is owned by someone else, there is an owner’s liability case against that owner.⚖Can You Sue The Bar Who Served The Drunk Driver?There may be a ‘Dram Shop’ case. That is a case against a bar who over-served the drunk driver. These are often difficult to prove and come with time-limits and special notices.
