One very effective way to reduce motorcycle noise pollution is for states, cities and towns to adopt and enforce the EPA label law. All motorcycles made after 1982 must have an EPA noise certified exhaust with a label embossed into the muffler. It's illegal under federal law to replace the noise certified exhaust with one that isn't certified or to tamper with the legal muffler to make more noise.

The city of Denver enacted an EPA label-based ordinance in 2007 and in less than two years mostly solved their motorcycle noise pollution problem with consistent enforcement and fines starting at $500. There's more information about this at the Maine Citizens For Quiet Motorvehicles Facebook page.
