I need to get a motorcycle inspected, in MD? How strict is it?
Here is the required equipment list from the MD Motorcycle Operator Manual, page x. If you have everything listed here, you should be OK. It is interesting that there is no mention of a muffler. MOTORCYCLE EQUIPMENT Your motorcycle must be equipped with (2) two brakes, at least (1) one headlight, (1) one rear red light, (1) one brake actuated red stop light, (1) one white rear light illuminating the license plate, a horn, (2) two mirrors, (2) two unaltered fenders, (2) two foot rests for the operator and (2) two retractable foot rests for a passenger. The mirrors shall be factory equipment or equivalent, and may not contain sharp edges, projections or irregular indents capable of producing injury. Rearview mirrors are one of the most important pieces of equipment on a motorcycle. The reflective surface of the mirror shall be of a size not less than (7) seven square inches allowing you to see part of the lane behind you and part of the lane next to you. Convex mirrors allow you to see the road in your immediate area in more detail, but they make the vehicles behind you look farther away than they really are.
