Have we ever wondered what can be changed on a motorcycle without breaking traffic laws? This video clarifies some doubts. Many things can be changed, but the parts must be approved, so they must bear a stamp "E" followed by a number. The parts that are most commonly changed are the lights, the license plate, and the exhaust. If the exhaust is approved, it can be installed without worry: it bears the "E" and is accompanied by a document certifying its approval: let's keep it among the motorcycle's documents. Obviously, these exhausts cannot be modified, otherwise we will be subject to a fine, which may even lead to the withdrawal of the registration card; as for the license plate, it must be clearly visible and there is a maximum inclination that must not be exceeded. For the lights, remember that the installation of non-approved components results in the withdrawal of the registration card and the extraordinary vehicle inspection.
