[QUOTE="HotRodZilla, post: 1182472, member: 13519"] Yup, I'm still calling baloney. If one knows how a catalytic converter works, one should know that they don't work without excessive heat. I seriously doubt the heat necessary for a CC to do its job is present that far down the pipe. Maybe if it had some kind of electrical igniter to help it work, but anyone that has removed the pipes knows nothing is plugged in. I would be VERY surprised to see some kind of catalytic converter lodged somewhere.in the muffler. Figure the mufflers plug in right behind the rider's feet. If they were running enough heat to make the necessary gas exchange and burn off the extra gasses, every GenII rider would be very aware of it. [/QUOTE]
