  • There is ZERO tolerance on personal attacks and ANY HYPERLINKS to PRODUCT(S) or other competing website(s), including personal pages, social media or other Forums.

Another excerpt of the ACEM mailing I got this from:

Regarding the environment, ACEM proposed a roadmad towards parity with cars. First, a Euro 4 stage in 2012, entailing a 25% reduction over Euro 3 in tailpipe emissions for motorcycles, and in 2015 we popose to attain Euro 5 stage realising a further 25% reduction in tailpipe emissions for motorcycles and achieving the goal of parity with Euro 5 gasoline passenger cars.

Next year will be marked not only by key policy challenges, such as the review of the PTWs Framework Regulation or the 4th Road Safety Action Programme. It will be a challenging year on other fronts as well, as the global economic crisis is showing. By bringing safer and cleaner motorcycles and scooters to the market the Industry is proving its readiness in shaping the future of motorcycling in a sustainable way. ACEM will continue to do its best to promote motorcycling as safer and cleaner mode of transport, a source of leisure and the object of passion for millions of sports fans.
