Summary: We have returned once again for a riveting episode of the Throttled Podcast!!.  Unfortunately both Larry and I were unable to get any motorcycle riding in, however given the short timeframe between episodes this time I can let it slide.<br> We start off our show once again with our retread section:<br> First up in the retread was the <a href="http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/epa-withdraws-racing-emissions-proposal/">EPA</a> admitting they messed up and got caught.<br> After that I admit that <a href="http://bmwmotorcycletech.info/hdlite.htm">modulating head lights are legal </a>in Alabama, in fact they are legal for motorcycles everywhere.  Larry makes a great point that if you use modulating lights there are guidelines and that you might want to keep a copy of the federal statute that allows them for motorcycles.<br> Moving on to new news we cover a new Yamaha announcement with the <a href="http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/bikes/yamaha-tracer-700/">FJ-07 </a>– <a href="http://www.motorcycle.com/manufacturer/yamaha/2016-yamaha-tracer-700-announced-for-europe-html.html">Tracer</a> <a href="http://www.motorcycle.com/manufacturer/yamaha/2016-yamaha-tracer-700-announced-for-europe-html.html">700</a>, 2 weeks in a row…way to go Yamaha.<br> A recall notice went out for the<a href="http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/recall/triumph-street-twin-electrical-recall/"> Triumph Street Twin</a>.<br> Finally we cover the subject of <a href="http://bigbikemad.com/motorcycle-airbags-review/">motorcycle passenger airbags</a>.  Listen to the end of the show to hear this discussion for more details.<br> Remember, find us in ITunes and give us a rating.<br><br> Send your feedback to <a>feedback@throttledpodcast.com</a>.<br><br> Ride safe everybody!!!<br>
