Yep, as much as I hate many of the restrictions, the CARB mandates really have cleaned things up. I too remember not being able to see the LA hills and if you could, everything was dead on them. Now, it's very clear on most days.

As tempting as it is seeing the Brozz, Sharks, Hawks, Enforcers and all the bikes here going for dirt cheap, (and being sold and shipped from here!) we get used to having fewer, more expensive choices.....but we're still not as expensive as our friends to the north! ;-)
