"Lead Law"
　
Most kids who live on a farm or own some land grow up riding small motorbikes and ATVs such as the TTR-50E or the XR100R and even the Raptor 80, all of these types of iconic two and four wheelers will be banned from use for under 12s in the US, because of some uptight ,bigwig, penpushers.
The name for such a wrongful law is called "Lead Law".
In America on February 10, the Consumer Product Safety Commission is pushing for the new but controversial "Lead Law" which will ban the use of youth bikes for under 12’s, because off lead being used in bike parts, like in the lead battery terminals and used as a sealant on the electrode endings. This law is so meaningless and is one of the most controversial in the US for quite some time with many people against the law and only a few for, it is becoming very well known as more people form together to stop the future law.
A well known motorbike brand "Suzuki" has mentioned that all of its products will have to be certified and tested, but have also said that "with all the rules and regulations of the new law it will be very hard to find the material to replace the lead were it was used. But within saying that there isn’t enough lead to do any harm and it can’t be ingested anyway". With all these meaningless rules and regulations which come with this law like banning youth bikes to under 12’s. Another well known motorbike brand called Yamaha has stated that "in an already unstable economy taking away such a huge part of motorbike and US income would be devastating to both industries". Think about it is it really worth it if it isn’t hurting or harming anyone?
There are many groups who have banded together to help stop the "Lead Law"
but most are to stop the dirt bike side of things like the AMA and the ATVA are trying to exempt dirt bikes as such from the law, calling it the "Kids Just Want To Ride Act".AMA and ATVA are the two most powerful groups because they are well televised and are motocross and super-cross giants, but they are still on the look out for all the help they can get to save the iconic XR100R or the TT-R50E even to the ATV series Raptor 50.
Our future children, grand children need to have dirt bikes in their lives, because would you miss riding around on motocross tracks or even just shifting the sheep on your XR100R, so we as people need to send our support to stop a foolhardy law about little bit of lead that harms no one. So the next time you’re out and about on your motorbike what ever it is stop and think would you really want the future youths to go without motorbikes?
