                      Relating to Exemptions Under Section 27156
                                 of the California Vehicle Code

                                 Champion Sidecars, Inc.
                                  Trike Conversion Kits

Pursuant to the authority vested in the Air Resources Board by Section 27156 of the
Vehicle Code; and

Pursuant to the authority vested in the undersigned by Section 39515 and
Section 39516 of the Health and Safety Code and Executive Order G—02—003;

IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That the installation of the Trike Conversion Kits,
produced and marketed by Champion Sidecars, Inc. of 18291 Enterprise Lane,
Huntington Beach, California 92648, has been found not to reduce the effectiveness of
the applicable vehicle pollution control systems and, therefore, is exempt from the
prohibitions of Section 27156 of the Vehicle Code for the following 2006 and older
model year motorcycles: Harley—Davidson Softail and Touring, Honda 1500cc and
1800cc Goldwing, and Honda 1300cc and 1800cc VTX.

Installation of the Trike Conversion Kit does not require modification or relocation of any
engine or emission control system component.

This Executive Order is valid provided the instaillation instructions for the Trike
Conversion Kits will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from
those of the vehicle manufacturer.

Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the Trike Conversion Kits, as
exempt by the Air Resources Board, which adversely affect the performance of the
vehicle‘s pollution control system shall invalidate this Executive Order.

This Executive Order shall not apply to any Trike Conversion Kits advertised, offered for
sale, sold with, or installed on a new motor vehicle prior to or concurrent with transfer to
an ultimate purchaser.

Marketing of the Trike Conversion Kits using any identification other than that shown in
this Executive Order or marketing of the Trike Conversion Kits for an application other
than those listed in this Executive Order shall be prohibited unless prior approval is
obtained from the Air Resources Board.

This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the
Trike Conversion Kits may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the
vehicle manufacturer.


                                               2.


This Executive Order is granted based on submitted emission test data generated on a
2006 model year 1.8L Honda Goldwing. Test results showed that emission levels, with
the Trike Conversion Kit installed, met the applicable emission standards when tested
using the Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure (FTP). Results from emission
testing conducted at Automotive Testing and Development Services, Inc., located in
Ontario, California, are shown below in grams per kilometer, with deterioration factors
(df) applied.

The Air Resources Board reserves the right in the future to review this Executive Order
and the exemption provided herein to assure that the exempted add—on or modified part
continues to meet the standards and procedures of Title 13, California Code of
Regulations, Section 2222, et seq.

ACCREDITATION, APPROVAL, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF ENDORSEMENT BY THE
AIR RESOURCES BOARD OF ANY CLAIMS OF THE APPLICANT CONCERNING
ANTI—POLLUTION BENEFITS OR ANY ALLEGED BENEFITS OF CHAMPION

The order may be revoked only after a ten—day written notice of intention to revoke the
order, in which period the holder of the order may request in writing a hearing to contest
the proposed revocation. If a hearing is requested, it shall be held within ten days of
receipt of the request and the order may not be revoked until a determination is made
after the hearing that grounds for revocation exist.

Executed at El Monte, California, this         /    day of August 2006.
