Default is a racing blaster illegal?

i have a blaster with a race motor, my neighbor says hes going to call the cops on me. i am wondering because i follow the rules but in my atv law book it says nothing about a race motor on your own property please let me know and the lrd environment friendly pipe is it quieter than just the lrd pipe i have on? and suggestions would be really appreciated if you think i'm trying to be mean i'm not its just that he works in the mornings and i ride after school.

let him call the cops, people do motor swaps all the time, a freind of mine has a banshee with a hayabusa motor. if yours is not a swap then you really have nothing to worry about. they cant do anything, its not like a car, i mean for christ sakes you cant arrest someone for a racing motor. he can call the cops if your riding in his yard or on the main road, but not for a racing motor. hell i took my muffler once just to **** my neighbor off. after he heard it off, he thought it would be better if i rode it with a muffler. so he didnt complain when i came by his house anymore. race motor or not, a quad is a quad, just stick to state law and goverment guide lines and yull be okey dokey.

old people ruin everything...

Is a racing blaster illegal? Probably not. But, the noise it may make might be. Does your town have a noise ordinance?

i belive that its a federal law, as long as it has baffels and a spark arrestor then it can be taken to state parks, but in your own yard then you have to obey the peace disturbing thing. no earlier then like 10:00 and no later then 9:00 he cant say anything if your in your own yard. the cops cant do anything about a racing quad, hes just trying to get you to think he can but he cant really.

hahahahah, do browties right in your yard next to his house. Anything like that to annoy him. Because if I had a a-hole like that living next to me I wouldn't take it.

No it isn't illegal to have a race motor in your blaster.

i knew thta he cannot have the cops arrest me but i don't want a ticket. he is grumpy usually because he has work in the mornings like i said and he wants peace but i want fun after school. and i kinda race tomuch with my friends in my yard which makes him kinda mad but i do not do it on purpose but oh well.

Ask your parents if you can keep annoying the neighbor.

when i had my muffler off my blaster it really pissed my neighbors off, i was doin it on purpose, they said it was loud the way it was, so i took off the muffler and they asked me 2 put it back on. man i wish i didnt need the muffler, i love the sound of a un-baffled 2 stroke.

The only thing you have to worry about is a noise ordinance, if you are on your property then you are just fine and have nothing to worry about.
Most state parks have a db limit of 96 decibles so some aftermarket pipes are not allowed.
