Removing the noise-reduction mechanism from a muffler is not treated as a modification that seriously impairs the muffler's function.
マフラー(消音器)の騒音を減らす仕組みを取り外しても、法令で定める「消音器の機能に著しい支障を及ぼす改造等」には含まれない。
This statement is FALSE
Explanation
Item 2 of the regulation expressly lists "removing the muffler's noise-reduction mechanism" as such a modification, so saying it is not included is wrong.
