The Senate Committee on Business & Commerce adopted a committee substitute to House Bill 29‑63 that adds a new definition for “power sports vehicle” and exempts those vehicles from the bill’s right‑to‑repair requirements.

A committee member explained that the substitute is significantly shorter than the filed bill and “adds a new definition, power sports vehicle.” The substitute text lists the items included in that definition: off‑highway vehicles, autocycles, motorcycles, scooters, personal watercraft, motorboats, and outboard engines. Those items are exempt from the right‑to‑repair bill under the committee substitute.

Senator King moved adoption of the substitute. On the roll call the committee recorded 11 ayes and 0 nays; the committee substitute was reported favorably and recommended for the local uncontested calendar.
