SECTION 3.  Section 545.416(b), Transportation Code, is amended to read as follows:
           (b)  An operator may not carry another person on the motorcycle, and a person who is not operating the motorcycle may not ride on the motorcycle, unless the motorcycle is:
                 (1)  designed to carry more than one person; and
                 (2)  equipped with footrests and handholds for use by the passenger.

How does this affect the Empulse? I don't remember seeing a "Hand Hold" on the gallery pictures.

Wow, terrible law (the handhold part), but Empulse most definitely has grab rails, so it wouldn't be effected.
