Catalytic converter

[MrClean]

Y'll heard of pipes with no catalytic converter , in place of the stock pipes ?
How can I get a exhaust setup ewth no catalytic converter .
The converter triples the heat and may help make the bike kooler without it.
Are there any after market ones??
Yes , yes I know it may illegal ...

Thanks

Make any difference with the heat from the fairing motor area??

Why id you get them ??

[MrClean]

I just called them , you are wrong , the staytune is just a slip on the end kinda thing , does not elimate the converter

The Cat is in the stock muffler. When you take them off to put on the Staintunes, you are taking off the cat converter. They run a lot cooler, but do not change the temps from the motor. I have Staintunes, and I got them because I like the looks.

The guy in Austrialia did not say that , buy , I believe you .
Oh wel , drop that idea as to the heat ?

It's still kool around here , just planning ahead

Two brothers dont have them either (at least Im pretty sure!)
they are very light also! - your bike will lose 30 pounds ...easy!
they are a bit loud though...
check the classified section here
I just saw a pair a couple days ago for $400 obo....

[MrClean]

30#s , that would be worth it , every 7 pound loss - means 1 hp gained .

Makes you think about the extra weight we carry around everyday.....our body I mean.

My bike doesn't need more Horsepower. It will exceed every speed limit in the U.S. by enough to get me a FELONY Reckless Driving Award with Jail Time. And it will flat smoke those KIDS in their Honda Civics with there Trash Can Size Mufflers. If it's Too Fast then I guess I'm Too Old.

You might find the attached spreadsheet interesting. I developed it when I started losing weight just to see what kind of difference dropping weight would make. You can substitute the torque number for horsepower if you want to see the effect on torque.

(And as an update on my diet, I've put on 1.9 HP since January.)
