                              EXECUTIVE ORDER D-633-1

                      Relating to Exemptions Under Section 27156
                                 of the California Vehicle Code

                                    Cobra Engineering
                                      FI2000R-ARB

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 F12000R-ARB, produced
and marketed by Cobra Engineering of 23801 E. La Palma Avenue, Yorba Linda,
California 92887, 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 2008 model year and older on road motorcycles, as listed in
Exhibit A.

The F12000R-ARB is an electronic control box designed to increase fuel into the
combustion chamber during high load conditions. The F12000R-ARB has no user
adjustments and is not designed to allow a user to download or modify the programming.
The F12000R-ARB does not modify or remove any component during installation.

This Executive Order is valid provided the installation instructions for the F12000R-ARB
will not recommend tuning the motorcycle to specifications different from those of the
Cobra Engineering.

Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the F12000R-ARB, as exempt by
the Air Resources Board, which adversely affect the performance of the vehicle's pollution
control system shall invalidate this Executive Order.

Marketing of the F12000R-ARB using any identification other than that shown in this
Executive Order or marketing of the F12000R-ARB 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 opirrion as to the effect the use of the
F12000R-ARB may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the vehicle
manufacturer.


This Executive Order is granted based on previously submitted emissions test results
(Yamaha and Harley Davidson motorcycles under Executive Order D-633), and new
emissions test data generated on two motorcycles (Suzuki and Kawasaki models) not
originally equipped with an oxygen sensor. Testing was conducted using the Cold-Start
CVS-75 Federal Test Procedure. Results from emissions testing conducted at Ecologic
Testing Laboratory, located in F~~llerton,
                                        California, are shown below in grams per
kilometer.

Exhaust emissions during comparative Cold-Start CVS-75 Federal Test Procedure for the
Suzuki, Yamaha, and Harley Davidson motorcycles showed that the F12000R-ARB did
not cause emissions to exceed the baseline by more than the allowed limits of 10 percent
on hydrocarbon (HC) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx), and 15 percent on carbon monoxide
(CO). Emission levels of the Kawasaki motorcycle met the applicable emission
standards. A similar effect on emissions is expected with the installation of the F12000R-
ARB on those motorcycles listed in Exhibit A of this Executive Order.

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.

THIS EXECUTIVE ORDER DOES NOT CONS1-ITUTE A CERTIFICATIOIV,
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 COBRA
ENGINEERING'S F12000R-ARB.

No claim of any kind, such as "Approved by the Air Resources Board", may be made with
respect to the action taken herein in any advertising or other oral or written
communication.

                                 EVALUATION SUMMARY

Manufacturer Name: Cobra Engineering

Name of Device: Fi2000R-ARB

Background:
      Cobra Engineering of 23801 E. La Palma Avenue, Yorba Linda, Califorr~ia92887,
has submitted an application for an exemption from the prohibitions in Section 27156 of
the California Vehicle Code (VC) for the Fi2000R-ARB for 2008 model year and older
on road motorcycle applications as listed in Exhibit A of the Executive Order.

Recommendation:
      Grant exernption to Cobra Engineering as requested and issue Executive Order
D-633-1.

Device Description:
        The Fi2000R-ARB is an electronic control box designed to increase fuel into the
combustion chamber during high load conditions. For oxygen sensor equipped
motorcycles, it uses the existing oxygen sensor(s) to monitor aidfuel mixtures and
increase the fuel injector pulse when the oxygen sensor readings show lean conditions.
For non oxygen sensor equipped motorcycles it uses the stock fuel injector pulse width
to determine areas of operation which can be made similar to closed-loop conditions.
The Fi2000R-ARB is installed in series to the oxygen sensor (factory equipped oxygen
sensor models only) and the fuel injector wiring harness. No wires are cut during
installation and factory style connectors are pre-installed on the wiring harness of the
Fi2000R-ARB. -The Fi2000R-ARB has no user adjustments and is not designed to allow
a user to download or modify the programming.

Discussion/Basis for the Recommendation:
       Cobra Engineering received Executive Order D-633 on March 19, 2008,
applicable to selected motorcycles originally equipped with an oxygen sensor. Cobra
Engineering has now applied for motorcycles not originally equipped with an oxygen
sensor, and seeks to consolidate all motorcycle applications for the Fi2000R-ARB under
one Executive Order. To determine the impact of the Fi2000R-ARB on emissions for
motorcycles not originally equipped with an oxygen sensor, two motorcycles were
selected for testing. Each motorcycle had a different type of emission control system
(see Table 1 below).

Exhaust emissions during comparative Cold-Start CVS-75 Federal Test Procedure for
the Suzuki showed that the F12000R-ARB did not.cause emissions to exceed the
baseline by more than the allowed limits of 10 percent on hydrocarbon (HC) and oxides
of nitrogen (NOx), and 15 percent on carbon monoxide (CO). Emission levels of the
Kawasaki met the applicable emission standards. The Air Resources Board did not
perform testing to confirm the test results submitted by the applicant but Air Resources
Board staff did verify the modified injector pulse width at Ecologic.

Similar effect on motorcycle emissions is expected with the installation of the
Fi2000R-ARB on motorcycles listed in Exhibit A of this Executive Order.

Based on the test results and information submitted by Cobra Engineering, the staff
concludes that the Fi2000R-ARB meets the requirements for a VC 27156 exemption for
2008 model year and older on road motorcycle applications as listed in Exhibit A of the
Executive Order.
