Hey folks,
I'm in Germany and trying to ask a question on a German forum but having trouble with the language barrier. I think I can ask you folks the same question and get the answer though. The background:
Everything that goes on the road here has to be registered, licensed, and inspected. Hobby tractors have to run normal vehicle plates w/ normal taxes. Farmers can use a green plate that means they can pay little to no taxes and get cheaper fuel as long as the use is directly related to the farm.
The exception to the rule is: If the vehicle is governored to run only up to 6km/h (3.6 mph), it needs not be licensed.
Now, the question I'm trying to ask and hope you folks can answer:
If it is set to only run that fast, wouldn't you loose HP also? Or is there a way to lock it another way?
