If I were in your position I would stress the need for training, zero tolerance for alcohol while riding ("leadership" will get a boner over the zero tolerance line), mandatory helmet use, and anything else that will cut down on the occurrence of accidents/injuries rather than simply trying to shoot down the ridiculous cc restriction.

These things have been addressed. First the taxpayer affords me free MSF classes every three years. AF-wide, the acceptance of alcohol is dropping and DUI's are career killers whether in a car or on a bike...and, if you're ever in Hawaii and you see a biker with long sleeves, long pants, helmet, eye protection, gloves, sturdy footwear, and a reflective vest during daytime or nightime hours in 90 degree heat, you can be he/she is military. These things are all mandatory.
We are also trying to nix the reflective vest 24 hours a day. That seems a bit stupid when there are thousand dollar kevlar jackets with contrasting reflective material throughout, and we have to cover it with a $6 orange vest.
