Ban on youth motorcycles finally ENDED!
Last night at 6 PM, President Obama signed into a law an exception for off-highway vehicles for the CPSIA, also known as the Lead Law. This is a great accomplishment, and a lot of credit goes to Cobra president Sean Hilbert, who acted as chief lobbyist and front-man for the effort. The CPSIA, while intended to protect kids, actually put them at great risk by banning youth vehicles as they would most likely be riding oversized vehicles.

S&S Cycle powers one of the coolest new vehicles: The Morgan 3-Wheeler
Morgan recently revealed that they are building a replica of the old Morgan 3-Wheeler, and making it available for sale. It will be powered by the S&S Cycle X-Wedge engine. This certainly is not a vehicle for just anyone, but enthusiasts will be picking it up as soon as they can. It was covered by the Kneeslider, The New York Times, Automobile, and Auto Express which even includes a video.
Congratulations to both Morgan and S&S Cycle for making this possible.
