Wow that is the most retarded thing I have ever heard. There goes people who don't ride legislating those that do. Stupid. There is big difference between a small toy a child could put in their mouth and lead on a dirt bike. Come on people.

so far only seems to directly affect quads and bikes at 50cc or under, as it's targeted at kids under 12. However, several places are now putting disclaimer stickers on the 50+ cc up to 110cc as not suitable for kids under 12. There seems to be some confusion on the exact cutoff size, as that video seems to say everything 110cc and under.

Pretty stupid law. It was aimed at childrens toys from China (that's a good thing) but was written so broadly that the quads and small dirt bikes got lumped in also. As it stands they cannot be sold, cannot sell parts for them, and the lawmakers expect the dealers to destroy all of them that fit in this category (like that won't put many of them under). No buy-back, nothing, so sorry...............

The goverment is doing a piss poor job tieing there shoes. Folks can decide whether they want to chance there kid riding an ATV or Motorcycle. If they are dumb enough to let them do it without a helmet, so be it. We don't need anymore laws, it's a waste of time. Let's concentrate on the real issues.

Lord forbid if kids get outside and have fun. This is due to a bunch of tree hugging hippies having their way.
