CHICAGO — Chicago bikers had a few choice words for Ald. Brendan Reilly (42nd) after he proposed raising fines on noisy motorcycle mufflers to as much as $1,000: "ridiculous" and "exorbitant."
The alderman introduced an ordinance last week that would handle "noise pollution" by targeting altered mufflers — which Reilly calls "a major quality-of-life issue" in his River North and Downtown ward. If it passes, maximum fines will increase from $100 to $1,000.
