Thanks much for posting this letter from Congressman Hill. I think you may know the impact the CPSIA is having on the youth motorcycle/ATV market. And that's why I find one of his sentences very interesting. He says: "The legislation also includes a provision that bans three-wheel all terrain vehicles (ATVs) which is based on an amendment I offered in the Full Committee to strengthen ATV safety regulations." Three-wheel ATVs have been banned since 1988. Since then only four-wheeler have been produced. This makes me question the rest of his knowledge about these rules. Unfortunately, he won't respond to my e-mail because I'm not one of his constituents. I'd love to know if this was merely a typo on his part. thanks much, Dennis Johnson Editor Dealernews magazine Julie Finn,
