BDifficulty 3/5

May a combustion-engine motorcycle be ridden on public roads with an open exhaust lacking the required silencer?

Correct answer

No.

No. Article 7 prohibits an open exhaust lacking the required silencer on both urban and interurban roads. It also prohibits exhaust gases passing through an incomplete, unsuitable or damaged silencer. Riding outside a built-up area does not grant general permission. An electric motorcycle is not an exception permitting removal of a combustion motorcycle’s silencer.
